They video was quiet promising. However looking at the app website shows that what was a false promise. The app does track every single launch and sends that to their servers (see privacy policy) not legal without consent in the EU. Calling this "tracker free" is more than misleading here. I'd call it a lie actually.
You may want to rework your privacy policy. It contadicts itself:
We do not track your online browsing activity on other online services over time and we do not permit third-party services to track your activity on our site beyond our basic Google Analytics tracking
- Analytics: We do not use any third-party Service Providers to monitor and analyze the use of our Service.
The reported tracker is ACRA, a crash report library (https://github.com/ACRA/acra).
I digged a bit into the source code and the apk. From looking at the code alone one can't tell if the crash report is actually enabled, the build configuration depends on some unpublished file. But looking into the apk allows to reconstruct it. These are my findings:
4.1. If the app crashes, you may be asked if you wish to submit a crash report. If you accept, your device information and crash details will be sent to us for the purposes of investigating the crash and improving the software.
This sadly is in line with Mozilla's increasingly bad privacy defaults. Users who care have moved on to more reasonable configurd forks at this point (e.g. Librewolf).
Can you give more details of the scan result? Exodus only lists the Play store version. I installed the F-Droid version but Exodus app reports it as "same version" and just shows the clean Google Play Store results. This is obviously wrong, the SHA1 listed for the Play Store version on the Exodus website is different compared to the F-Droid .apk I have installed. Sadly the Exodus website does not support scanning F-Droid apps from third-party repos so I have no idea how to scan it.
That being said, according to the privacy policy (https://voiceinput.futo.org/VoiceInput/PrivacyPolicy), the F-Droid .apk version should have some kind of crash report build-in. So I could imagine that this might get flagged.
Be careful with those, they can interfere/kill your or your neighbors DSL connection. Terrible to diagnose these.
This is your best option. I did do movie nights with friends during the pandemic in a similar way, but I used OBS Studio to create the stream and Monaserver to stream it to all users. I did not know VLC can handle the streaming to users directly, making this dead simple to setup without additional software. You just need to know how to configure your router to allow the needed port forwarding.

“Could”. More likely it was closed loop. As I understand it this is an estimate, thus the word "could". This has nothing to do with using closed or open look water cooling. Water isn’t single use, so even if true how does this big number matter.
The point they are trying to make is that fresh water is not a limitless resource and increasing usage has various impacts, for example on market prices.
The outdated network holding back housing is that it doesn’t go to the right places with the capacity needed for the houses. Not that OpenAIUK is consuming so much that there’s no power left. To use a simily, there’s plenty of water but the pipes aren’t in place.
The point being made is that resources are allocated to increase network capacity for hyped tech and not for current, more pressing needs.
That is not entirely correct. The reported found the app using permissions that are not covered by the manifest. It also found the app being capable to execute arbitrary code send by temu. So it cannot be clearly answered if the app can utilize these permissions or not. Obviously they would not ship such an exploit with the app directly.
Have you tried https://github.com/jeena/fxsync-docker? It is a docker compose for selfhosting the new Firefox sync server rewritten in Rust.

Thank you, I'll look into it.
Agreed. From a privacy perspective, it is a lot safer to run the app in an environment where you have admin control. E.g. disable when not in use, block access to sensitive device information, limit background and network activity as much as possible.
That's so sad. Uses to buy all my music through them.
On Android nothing comes close to gReader Pro with The Old Reader as sync Backend. Sadly the app is discontinued, however the apk can be used just fine.
