F-Droid supports adding third-party repos, no need to create another app, right? Right?
F droid is dificult, the landing page is senseless and searching isnt intuitive. Feels a bit disjointed
They probably don't have a designer, but as a platform they're actually solid. App devs can't pull a switcheroo like uploading malicious apk because they can only upload source code (which will be made public), not binary. You can be sure apps you download there 100% generated from the published source code, unlike downloading from, say, release page on some random github repo.
