Finally installed F-Droid - eviltoast

Since simple mobile tools will soon become a spyware and I use 3 of their apps regularly, yesterday I installed F-Droid after reading many Lemmy recommendations.

Wow, I’m pleasantly surprised.

A new app I’ve tested is Spotube (Spotify open source alternative; edit: apparently it uses Spotify metadata but it streams from YouTube. My bad.).

Any other underrated app y’all recommend?

    This is such a great list, saving and installing a few!

    Adding on (and likely seconding a few):

    • 2048: game
    • Aegis: for 2Fa stuff
    • AntennaPod: second this one
    • AnkiDroid: Flashcards, the Anki project is huge and extends way past android. Worth exploring if you want/need to memorize things
    • Droid-ify: Fdroid client I use, but I keep the main app installed too
    • Eat Poop You Cat: game to be played in a group
    • Feeder: for RSS
    • FFShare: for compressing photos/videos before sharing
    • FlorisBoard: The keybaord I liked, although I don’t use it full time
    • GPTAssist: Frontend for chatGPT
    • Material Files: File manager
    • Native Alpha: Have websites run like apps, while isolating each site
    • OpenFoodFacts: A bit buggy, but it’s similar to OSM but for food
    • RetroStack: Another game
    • SDMaid SE: Same dev from the popular playstore one, is rebuilding a better one from scratch, AND it’s now FOSS
    • SkyMap:
    • Survival manual
    • Termux
    • Translate You
    • UntrackMe: To redirect Tiktok/Twitter/Pinterest/etc. links to the frontends
    • URLCheck: Highly recommend getting this one to clean trackers from links
    • Unitto: Calculator of choice. I explored a bunch before settling on this one

    For OSM specifically, I second the ones mentioned. Here are some other OSM related things: https://lemmy.ca/post/6586265
