This is wild because I had never heard of this news anywhere. R.I.P. DivestOS, my favorite mobile OS. Anyone know of a project with a similiar goal of deblobbing android?

Woah, I never knew Hypatia is part of the Divest team. Here I thought I was unaffected by the shutdown... I wonder if they'll keep the av updates coming, since they are provided by ClamAV.

Edit: Looks like the script that converts clamav to hypatia compatible packages is public, I'm tempted to run it myself and host the files on my own server. That way I can just set the database override link within the app to my domain and done.

They said that they would stop updating the database :(

Sucks big time. I just polled the latest available update from the 27th, but I guess that's it then. Will look into preparing my own packages, if I'm successful I will try to host them on github or something and share the link.
