F-Droid has recently been awarded the Open Technology Fund's FOSS Sustainability Grant, recognizing its contributions to open-source software on Android. Users appreciate F-Droid's ability to provide a useful Android experience without relying on the Google Play Store. However, they express challenges in discovering applications effectively, with suggestions for implementing curated app categories or improving the app's client interface. Several users also mention alternative tools like Obtainium for managing apps, indicating a desire for better app discovery solutions. Despite its minor flaws, F-Droid maintains a loyal user base who commend its efforts towards open-source advocacy.
