Obtainium apps
Hi there, I generally use Google Play Store as my primary app store, but I do prefer some of the apps available on GitHub through Obtainium. It is an ever changing list, of course, but below are ones I'm using currently:
- For listening to my music: https://github.com/OxygenCobalt/Auxio
- For editing images: https://github.com/T8RIN/ImageToolbox
- For reading the news: https://github.com/Ashinch/ReadYou
- For listening to the radio: https://github.com/jamal2362/URL-Radio
- For getting the weather forecast: https://github.com/davidtakac/prognoza
Hope that helps. I think credit here is due to @matchboxbananasynergy for introducing me to all of those apps!
For manga, Tachiyomi is fantastic https://github.com/tachiyomiorg/tachiyomi

akc3n ReadYou
I prefer Feeder. Moreover, it is on Play Store (and GitHub ofc). I do not understand the hype with Read You haha (even after trying). Both are great.

For money management, I like Paisa (from the team behind RetroMusicPlayer).
Prognoza is good for weather. But Rain is on Play Store also and is nice looking too, if you prefer
I also recommend Aves, which is insane, even better than Google Photos for me
And Organic Maps, Aegis 2FA, Unitto (calculator and unit converter), Loop (to track habits), Etar calendar and LibreTube (for YouTube), which are all open source and on GitHub I believe.
There already is a thread for apps recommendations.

Your welcome
You can't.
I believe there is a possibility with Gcam services provider but it is not recommended because you won't be able to install it on two profiles, I believe (but there might be other issues idk)
akc3n What I did not like about Read You is that it doesn't show the news on the main page. You need to either click on "All" or click on the individual news source. In comparison, Feeder shows all the news on the main page from all the added sources. So, I can just open the app and keep scrolling through the news but on Read You app, I need to click on "All" in order to see news.

[deleted] After testing all the weather apps available on Fdroid, I have finally settled with Rain. The UI is amazing. By the way, does Aves lets you remove EXIF from photos? I am using Simple Gallery app and it lets me select hundreds of photos at once and remove EXIF from them at a single click.
ev6x You can also take a look at Kotatsu.

Yes, AVES can remove metadata of several pictures at once.
It can erase Exif, XMP, Adobe JPG, Comment, Ducky, ICC Profile, IPTC, JFIF and Photoshop data.

[deleted] Aves Gallery can be installed from Accrescent too (the best app store available on Android, though only whitelisted apps are available right now).
One more thing worth mentioning is that the GrapheneOS camera app removes all the metadata by default, but you can toggle that off in settings if needed.
It also automatically removes all the metadata from screenshots, which too can be disabled in settings if needed.
Anyone have the links add wireguard app and brave browser?

W1zardK1ng this resource maybe of use has a fair few app links for Obtainium. Can't see Wireguard though.
Try this for Wireguard. It was somewhat challenging because it's not Github or F-Droid you're downloading from, but a webpage. I had to create an "Intermediate link" in Obtanium to deal with this. If there's a better way I'm sure smarter forum members will chime in.
Just copy the json code and save it off as a .json file on your phone. In Obtanium "Import/Export" you can then import the json config. (Sorry this is so ugly.)
