F-Droid is the single biggest reason that Android is actually usable. And the only real reason Google aren’t getting sued for monopoly practices. If only ReplicantOS was more viable

i use F-Droid and Aurora but only Aurora is giving me updates on a very old phone.

Big fan, but if you haven’t tried Obtainium as a client, give it a go. Can manage installs from F-Droid, GitHub releases, and more.

Another reason to check out eOS. F-Droid is a standard source for the default app store, along with the usual play store apps. I just got a Fairphone 5 last week, an installed eOS. I’m loving it so far.
