Hey GrapheneOS community!

I've been helping out some friends switch to GrapheneOS lately, and one thing kept coming up - "which apps should I use?" So I put together a collection called GrapheneOS AppVerse:
https://alternativeto.net/lists/35462/grapheneos-appverse/

It's basically a list of privacy-focused apps (mostly FOSS) that I've found work well with GrapheneOS. Nothing fancy, just trying to make life easier for new users who are figuring out their app setup.

Check it out if you're interested, and let me know if you have any suggestions or apps you think should be added!

    Hello, that is a nice list.
    If I may, I would suggest not to mix together self-hosted apps (Immich) with normies' apps. You might dedicate a specific chapter to those who are willing to self-host, if you want to emphasise on the extra-level of privacy that it provides (with increased risk for data security).

      Eirikr70 Added to the list! After a quick glance - seems like a great weather app. Thanks again for the contribution!

      yam8449 Yes, I have heard a lot of good stuff about it but why need a DNS when the VPN already takes care of it? (at least the ones on my list)

      Wouldn't it be redundant? Or what am I missing here?

        I would say that RethinkDNS is quite different from a VPN (although it partly acts as and takes the place of a VPN) since it provides with an on-device DNS filter.

        Overall, this is a good list and could definitely be useful for people starting out. A couple of suggestions, if I may:

        1. Remove Binary Eye, which is made redundant by Secure Camera, which has QR and barcode scanning functionality.
        2. Remove Secure Photo Viewer, which seems to be from 2018 with very few reviews.
        3. Perhaps you would like to include launcher recommendations. From my experience, Lawnchair and Kvaesitso are both FOSS and very nice to use, especially as the default Launcher3 is fairly barebones.
        4. RSS readers might also be worth considering. I’m currently using Feeder, which is another great, FOSS app.

          phnx

          Remove Binary Eye, which is made redundant by Secure Camera, which has QR and barcode scanning functionality.

          Redundant? Have you seen the feature set of BinaryEye?
          @OP Leave it in, do not remove it!

          phnx 1 & 2 done! Have updated the list.

          Will think about 3 & 4. Thanks for your contribution!

          (Although I think Binary Eye seems to offer way more)
