What kinda good stuff is on F Droid they the average User might want?
Literally can't say enough good stuff about Newpipe.
Everything YouTube SHOULD be, this is. LISTEN TO A VIDEO IN THE BACKGROUND!!!!!11. Playback speed infinitely adjustable- good for lectures, interviews, etc. No ads. No bullshit.
Endless Sky and Mindustry are some good, fun, deep games.
oh and shattered pixel dungeon also...
The UX for Mindustry sucks compared to something like Factorio, because it's really tough to do those controls on touch screen, but it's good enough. I've enjoyed it for the little I tried.
Most of the apps of tibor kaputa. I really like the simple gallery. The simple dialer and simple contacts are also really good. Just clean default apps that do what they should.(adfree)
Osmand (offline GPS maps)
Same version as the android store but free.
I prefer LibreTube because it doesn't look outdated and it uses Piped, so you never actually connect to the YouTube servers and you can synchronize your subscriptions and playlists
Agreed. LibreTube is really good.
Just got it. Amazing! Thanks!
I use LibreSudoku. It's a very nice Sudoku app.
Everything
Öffi, a non sucking public transportation app.
Thanks to US infrastructure I don't need yet another map just for public transport! Thanks US government for looking out for us little people! (I really don't think this is needed, but /s just in case.)
Pretty much all the basics are covered, here are some examples:
And then of course all you power-ish user stuff (alternate launchers, clients for self-hosted clouds and stuff, terminal emulators...)
Worth noting while checking out Aves libre it seems the developer has renamed it to just Aves and continued updating.
New to f-droid so if I have this wrong let me know
