While a discussion of the best F-Droid apps is nice, explaining to people the benefit of never using the Google Play Store would go a long way to increasing the demand for F-Droid apps. Of course... this means making people care about the privacy of their personal data and if that ever became popular then the use of mobile phones would plummet.
- fsflover 5y agoThere are other benefits of F-Droid, e.g. the lack of malware and adware. You can be sure that anything you install will respect you and behave.

Replaced it with one from f-droid with more features and worked well. (Since then she removed it as she didn't want to play it so much.)
