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.

๐Ÿ”๏ธ Codeberg version

I hope you will find it useful! ๐Ÿคฉ

Looks astonishing! But I need to check if it's working and applies to the rules. :c Maybe you could do that for me with a Pull Request? :)

Sorry, I don't know how to use git. But I can verify that it does work, and work well. Its just a bit slow. It also adheres to the rules as far as I can tell.

Ah, I understand, no worries. Just using Android and knowing what F-Droid is is enough. :)

Its just a bit slow.

If you don't mind, me neither. ;)

But I don't use it and I cannot confirm, so you know... contribution would be helpful. In the future I will try this up but no time for now :c

If you tell me how to make a pull request I'd be happy to give it a go

This repository is excellent for learning how to contribute on GitHub. Unfortunately account is needed.

  1. Log in into GitHub account.
  2. Fork my project.
  3. On your fork add necessary changes using git and some text editor.
  4. Go into my project and submit a pull request that has changes on your fork for my main branch.

That's it. :)
