Has anyone noticed that apps on F-Droid or that you just get from GitHub are just better than the ultra-popular apps on the play store? Most of them are open source and have no ads or trackers. But this isn’t true on the Play Store at all.
I see myself always getting apps from F-Droid now because there is always an alternative to the ad-infested bloated privacy infesting BS that I find on the play store. It’s unfortunate that it’s gotten this bad, where the only reason I even use the play store is to install updates or games.
One is designed to be a tool and actually used by a dev made out of passion. The other is a product that doesn’t trust you with their source and expects you to trust them back. Nor do you have a say in the development or any undesired features that may be added.
