F-Droid 1.19.0 brings automatic background updates and a new and better workflow for adding repositories. (floss.social)

Bromite is highly outdated. I strongly recommend either adding the Cromite repo, or the DivestOS repo for their Mull or Mulch.

Thank-you for this.

I've been using FDroid for some years but rarely see a list like this.

I tried Collabora, but I didn't find it very usable

Yeah, I hear it often from people who tried it. Still worth a shot once in a while, as long as they keep updating it

The Izzy repo may be popular but with getting more than 1000 apps in that repo which are also in the main F-Droid repo I've been hesitant to add it. What happens when Izzy repo has a newer version than the F-Droid repo ? The main F-Droid repo goes for reproducible builds and checks for closed source software and more. Izzy repo downloads from the app upstream, does a malware check and that is all it seems.
