I feel safer with F-droid.

I feel like the overlap of people smart enough to install F-droid and dumb enough to install a dodgy adware app has to be pretty small.

Don’t underestimate the dumbness of people.

Which third-party client is good for F-Droid? Or the first-party app is good?

I’ve been really liking Neo Store.

MalReynolds@slrpnk.net · edit-2 1 year ago

Yup, has F-Droid even got auto update yet? That’s what sold me on Neo…

StereoTypo@beehaw.org · 1 year ago

I’m pretty sure it does

Unsustainable@lemmy.today · 1 year ago

Yes! It just started working when I updated it a few days ago.

Droidify is where it is at!

Is it just me, or is extending your trust even further from F-Droid maybe not a great idea?

hunt4peas@lemmy.ml · 1 year ago

Some said the unofficial F-Droid apps are better than the official F-Droid itself.

perishthethought@lemm.ee · 1 year ago

Define “better” though. More secure? Safer for me and my data in the long run? Ok, cool!
