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.
security theater
Which third-party client is good for F-Droid? Or the first-party app is good?
I've been really liking Neo Store.
Yup, has F-Droid even got auto update yet? That's what sold me on Neo...
I'm pretty sure it does
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?
Some said the unofficial F-Droid apps are better than the official F-Droid itself.
Define "better" though. More secure? Safer for me and my data in the long run? Ok, cool!
