From official F-Droid & IzzyOnDroid repos (except for Molly):

1. Aegis Secure + encrypted 2FA

2. Calculator++ Powerful scientific calculator

3. Clipious or FreeTube Android Clipious: Privacy focused invidious client that syncs with your account and lets you pick backup instances in case yours goes down FreeTube: Ad-blocking cross-platform privacy-focused YouTube client that imo looks better than NewPipe + Clipious

4. FluffyChat (if you use Matrix) Secure, private (although not as good as Signal), client for Matrix (the messaging service) that imo looks better than Element and lets you seperate rooms + DMs, which some clients don’t let you do iirc as well as a couple other features like pinned messages and video calls.

5. HeliBoard Best open source keyboard I’ve used so far

6. KeePassDX KeePass compatible password manager

7. Moshidon and/or Mastify Mastodon clients. Mastify looks really good but is till in Alpha releases so is missing quite a bit of features. Moshidon is extremely feature rich.

8. Molly Security-focused fork of Signal

9. Podverse My personal favourite podcast app, run by 1 person afaik with a lot of free features, or a very cheap paid plan that is basically just a donation because it only adds like 2 features that I can remember. Has a very generous trial too and the dev has said if you can’t afford it they’re willing to adjust pricing for you.

10. QUIK SMS Best actively maintained, open source SMS client.

11. Twine Beautiful cross-platform RSS feed app.

I’m using Firefox + uBlock Origin and don’t have a paywall.

What adblocker are you using? It doesn’t appear for me.

Isn’t this an anti-ddos page? Happens all the time at my school because we’re 3000 people using one connection.

Certain restrictions related to Microsoft Edge are applied less in the EU

oh shit lmao thanks for pointing that out, i edited my comment.

Looks to be a Speedlink Prime Z-DW

Saving this. Useful info!

It also has winget for terminal package managing now, but it takes its packages from ms store and is super inconsistent in my experience.

Finally bought myself a Playstation, so I’ve been playing a bunch of The Last of Us over the last week or so. And I got back into Hypixel Skyblock (please help the game has me trapped.)

it feels more like twitter did, and it is more centralised and less technologically focused, so more normie-friendly.

Also wtf, even with vanced, it makes me subscribe to hit play next? Thats such a basic function.

Everything snapchat does is a cash grab
