I'm confused. I downloaded the latest version from the website and still have the old one

If I would have read carefully, I would have seen, that they're rolling it out during the next weeks

Weird, I've had this on F-droid Basic for weeks now. Months? Maybe not, but definitely weeks.

From the description of the Basic client:

NOTE: The Basic version of F-Droid Client has a reduced feature set (e.g. no nearby share and no panic feature). It targets Android 13 and can do unattended updates without privileged extension or root.
