Tachiyomi, but honestly I mostly use Neko which is a fork of TachiyomiJ2K which is a fork of Tachiyomi. Both aren’t on Fdroid but at least they are completely FOSS.

It’s the best Manga reader out there and it supports basically every Manga website out there and more.

Many apps that are on F-Droid are also on Google Play, but there are exceptions. Gadgetbridge (smart watch connection app) warns that the Google Play version is unofficial and unaffiliated. An unofficial app might be upstream compiled without modifications, but this opens users to potential supply chain attacks from the uploader and Google.

F-droid is great. But I wish f-droid had some kind of rating system so that I could use it more.

NewPipe

Simple calendar

Simple gallery

SD Maid

KeePassDX

MuPDF mini

Open contacts

OsmAnd~

Slight backup

VLC

Jerboa

F-droid

ps: how do you make a list on Jerboa/lemmy?

Either that, or at least a download count so that I could tell which apps were most popular. (I tend to trust popularity more than ratings as a proxy for quality anyway.)

It’s markdown format, starting a line with - will show a bullet point
