An alternative to Google App Store is F-Droid [1].
It hosts open source applications and vets them for privacy issues. It also indicates if apps promote closed services.
I use a few apps from F-Droid including:
AdAway for blocking ads using host files
RedReader for browsing Reddit
MuPDF for reading PDFs
OSMand for offline OpenStreetMap maps and navigation
AFWall for blocking data hungry apps

- cyphax 12y agoI use f-droid as well but I also have Aptoide installed which has a huge offer of apps as well. I still don't have or care for Google's apps on my phone (it runs on CyanogenMod as well) so it's quite doable as far as I'm concerned.
