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?

I trust the debian repo because fortune 500 companies run debian and rely on it

F-droid repo doesnt have the same level of scrutiny

    Yeah, that is a valid opinion to hold. I am saying that trust is garbage.

    You could consider compiling the KeePass app yourself, if you're worried about that one in particular.
    A guy I used to study with, decided that he just wouldn't have a password manager on his phone.
    I've certainly considered switching to a Linux phone for that, among many other reasons...
