Awesome Android Apps
AAA
Hi all,
for 2 years, sporadically, I've been adding awesome FOSS apps with the following:
Rules
- Open Sourced
- Free of charge (on F-Droid and source code repository releases)
- Free as in Freedom
- Ad-free
- Installed and tested by me or by contributor
- Privacy-friendly aware
- Easy to use
- Still in development or polished experience
- Does not lack features compared to proprietary app
- Does not need an account (the only exceptions are self-hosted) apps)
- Has dark theme
...tested by my and then later by contributors. I think many of you will appreciate this simple README.md repo, and I would love some help with it.
I hope you will find it useful! 🤩

Whobird under AI, nice.
Might be good to add descriptions for a lot of these also, I'm not sure what a lot of them do.
Glad to hear that! That was the main purpose of this list. :) And that is why I need contributors so maybe they found or heard something that I have not.
Ok, here's my contribution
Selfhosted
Wallabag - Save and classify articles, read them later, freely
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/fr.gaulupeau.apps.InThePoche/
Gelli - Native music player for Jellyfin
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.dkanada.gramophone/
Ntfy - Send notifications to your phone from any script using PUT/POST requests
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/io.heckel.ntfy/
Clipious - Client for Invidious, the privacy focused YouTube front end.

Thanks!
I would like your contribution to be in Pull Request, nonetheless I will comment on what you suggested ;)
- Wallabag - I know it and used it, but through official wallabag instance, I never self-hosted it. Did you?
- Gelli - looks cool, but last commit was 10 months ago compared to official Jellyfin app which commit was 7 hours ago.
- Ntfy - that looks astonishing for automation. Where would you put it, under what category?
- Clipious - already added. ;)
- Linkdy - looks nice, but Privacy Policy is meh and I need a IzzyOnDroid or F-Droid link. Otherwise, I cannot add it.
- LT-app - looks cool but yet again I don't see F-Droid or IzzyOnDroid link. I want my list to be 100% FOSS compatible with F-Droid / IzzyOnDroid repos.
- Wallabag, yes i selfhost it and use it every day!
- Gelli, didn't realise that, i guess it does everything it has to do for me, no complaints or bugs that i know of :)
- Ntfy, i use it exclusively for my selfhosted apps, but i can imagine broader usage. But still i would file it under selfhosting ;)
- Linkdy, hmm, you're making me second guess the app
- LT, shame, it's really good. But I understand
- Great! It should come from you (PR), however, because I don't :/
- Yeah, that also works, so maybe I will add it :)
- Hmm, well self-hosting and automation are really close, especially when you have your own cloud... as a sys cloud admin, I know a thing or two about it.
- On my GrapeheneOS you can disable access to network, but still app looks cool and you can inspect the code but it takes time to tell if something spooky is going on.
- Maybe in the future. ;)
Fritter as a client for Twitter ? Lol this app doesn't work for long time. Squacker is the only available option today but unfortunately they use Twitter API instead of Nitter that was shut down
Yee you're right. I was going for deleting Twitter, Nitter, Fritter. :C Elon Musk won...
