Sadly, it has been taken down:

Hi Developers at Mazzarolo Matteo,

After review, Top Github, com.mmazzarolo.dev.topgithub, has been suspended and removed from Google Play as a policy strike because it violates the impersonation policy.

Next Steps

Read through the Impersonation article for more details and examples of policy violations.
Make sure your app is compliant with the Impersonation and Intellectual Property policy and all other policies listed in the Developer Program Policies. Remember additional enforcement could occur if there are further policy issues with your apps.
Sign in to your Play Console and submit the policy compliant app using a new package name and a new app name.
What if I have permission to use the content?

Contact our support team to provide a justification for its use. Justification may include providing proof that you are authorized to use the content in your app or some other legal justification.

Additional suspensions of any nature may result in the termination of your developer account, and investigation and possible termination of related Google accounts. If your account is terminated, payments will cease and Google may recover the proceeds of any past sales and/or the cost of any associated fees (such as chargebacks and transaction fees) from you.

If you’ve reviewed the policy and feel this suspension may have been in error, please reach out to our policy support team. One of my colleagues will get back to you within 2 business days.

Regards,

The Google Play Review Team

I already tried contacting the GitHub team requesting an authorization but they cannot do anything about it :(

Sadly…… if you can publish on Github as a released package?

Thanks for the awesome app man! I'm a happy everyday user.

Unfortunately, I recently wiped my phone and couldn't find the app on the Play Store. Any chance you can change the branding and re-upload to the Play Store? If not, any chance you can upload to F-droid as per #4?
