now that we have lost f-droid as well, are there some good clients that allow you to install foss apps?

Trouble in the F-droid world, what will be consequences? - Lemmy

https://lemmy.ml/post/8903945

I was lurking on reddit and found out this post, I guess from the owner of @fdroidorg@floss.social [https://floss.social/@fdroidorg] . I really hope that they will find a solution, I think that a lot of people depend on the good state of F-droid

The only one that know is obtainium, but from what i understood it only fetches the latest version of an app and it doesn't even check if it gets installed correctly.

I'm also i'm concerned about the safety of the apks; i know that trusting the f droid repo isn't any safer than trusting the builds from the dev, but it would be nice to know if there is any way to check other than checking the code by hand.
