Why do you want this app added to F-Droid:

App store distribution should make it easier to deliver updates, and hopefully spread the word more given that users keep asking for network share support (something the original devs have already taken a stance against adding) and don't realize a fork already exists lol.

Summary:

Lightweight file explorer with network share support.

Description:

This is a fork of Fossify File Manager which adds network file sharing (currently only SMB) and brings a number of other new features and improvements. A full list can be found in the README.
