Breezy Weather
Tubular. It’s a fork of newpipe incorporating sponsorblock and youtube dislike.
It is honestly better than YouTube Premium. Watt Google should offer as part of its paid suite, an open source software does it.
I like pipepipe cause it lets you see comment chains instead of just the top one
Tubular does this now too
So does newpipe
Tubular is newpipe but better, got sponsorblock plus a cooler name
This doesn’t show when i search for it on F-Droid 🤔
It’s in IzzyOnDroid repo
Ooooh i haven’t added any additional repos. I should get on that, lol. Thank you.
I had to uninstall Vector Pinball because it was TOO favorite. Like, the motion sensor lights in the bathroom at work would shut off.
Fuck. Why are you telling us about it?
I should have never installed it, damn it
Lol! It’s so good though! I’m sure I’ll have another fling with it before long.
Haven’t seen InnerTune mentioned yet: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.zionhuang.music/
Good Spotify alternative for me.
FairEmail. I got fed up with the Gmail app injecting ads despite I pay for storage and services. FairEmail is not beautiful by modern standards but with some tweaking I can live with it, no problem.

Unexpected Keyboard or Super Tux Kart tough choice
oh wow, unexpected keyboard is amazing for termux/Linux
I hadn’t heard of Super Tux Kart so I just went and tried it out and man…it seems awesome but the control schemes are all so incredibly awful. Do you know if there’s controller support?
I have no clue, but hope at least a DS4 would work
edit: someone on yt has been able to wire up an xinput controller, so there’s something at least
I just started using Local Send (https://f-droid.org/packages/org.localsend.localsend_app/) ; what a blessing this app is, no more uploading to
someone else’s computerthe cloud and downloading to my pc or vice versa, it’s so fast tooThumb-key, mull browser, keepassdx, kiss launcher, tuta mail, ntfy
OsmAnd for obvious reasons.
Breezy weather, cause goddamn is it nice to have an actually good weather app that doesn’t want the most bullshit permissions that a weather app shouldn’t ever need access to.
Image Toolbox - it’s pretty nice.
Cool Reader - dead project, it’s successor KnownReader isn’t on F-droid, but it doesn’t matter much. I still haven’t gotten completely used to known, cool works perfectly fine and it has been my e-reader of choice ever since the j2me days.
Jerboa!
I got it from the regular play store and I’m on it right now. Is it any different from F-droid?
It’s just as free as it is independent on F-droid
Lol, I figured there wouldn’t really be a difference, but I still felt compelled to ask.
Fennec, a flavour of Firefox that strangely consumes much less battery than the official Firefox app.
I’m new to fdroid, does anyone know of a swype capable keyboard? I’m using SwiftKey but I hate that it’s owned by MS now.
Hold up; is Jan 11, 2022 really seriously the last time Temux was updated anywhere? Wtf?
Everyone knows the popular ones so here’s a shout out to a few that are perhaps not so commonly known:
My most used can no longer live without app:
- Joplin - Note taking. Various sync options. Brilliant app, helpful community & very regular updates (especially desktop)
