Could you publish Joplin on F-droid?

Joplin relies on Firebase to enable reliable notifications on Android. Since F-Droid do not accept applications that depend on this package, it is not currently possible to have Joplin in that repository. To avoid using Google Play, you have the option to directly download the Joplin APK file.

Why is it named Joplin?

The name comes from the composer and pianist Scott Joplin, which I often listen to. His name is also easy to remember and type so it fell like a good choice. And, to quote a user on Hacker News, "though Scott Joplin's ragtime musical style has a lot in common with some very informal music, his own approach was more educated, sophisticated, and precise. Every note was in its place for a reason, and he was known to prefer his pieces to be performed exactly as written. So you could say that compared to the people who came before him, his notes were more organized".
