Has anyone noticed that apps on F-Droid or that you just get from GitHub are just better than the ultra-popular apps on the play store? Most of them are open source and have no ads or trackers. But this isn’t true on the Play Store at all.
I see myself always getting apps from F-Droid now because there is always an alternative to the ad-infested bloated privacy infesting BS that I find on the play store. It’s unfortunate that it’s gotten this bad, where the only reason I even use the play store is to install updates or games.

Lichess - rather than chess.com
Rustdesk - remote desktop software
Syncthing - rather than Dropbox
KDE Connect - phone/computer integration (notifications, media control, mouse and keyboard, file sharing, presentation remote, clipboard sharing, etc)
Aves gallery,
Organic maps
PlayBook - audiobook player
Bitwarden - password manager,
Droid-ify - F-droid client
Element - matrix client (potentiall alternative to discord)
GrapheneOS is also great.
May I suggest you check out KeepassDX? I found it’s UI/UX to be much better a few years ago. Haven’t looked back since.

I loved Infinity. Shame they aren’t moving it to Lemmy, and instead they’re making it a subscription.

Seems so bizzare though and contradictory. Like not wanting to use the official reddit app that is free and not restricted, but too addicted to reddit to quit that they are willing to pay a subscription to be able to continue to reddit on the app they want. That’s like a super hardcore reddit addict more than regular users who scoffed at the idea of a boycott.

Hahahahahaha
Oh you’re serious
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
To me someone paying monthly to continue posting on reddit through a third party app because they are too addicted to quit is more ridiculous than using the official app. At that point they are participating and adding content that increases engagement on reddit. There’s no stance of being anti reddit at that point. They are officially a reddit addict. So yeah, I do look down on them more than official reddit app users.
