VideoLAN @videolan App Stores were a mistake. Currently, we cannot update VLC on Windows Store, and we cannot update VLC on Android Play Store, without reducing security or dropping a lot of users... For now, iOS App Store still allows us to ship for iOS9, but until when?

Probably beating a dead horse, so... sorry, but look into the Gab fiasco or FreeTusky.

F-Droid does 'censor' or moderate their app repository. However, they do not control which sources or repos you may install from.

If there's an app you want that f-droid doesn't stock, see if the app has a private repo, like Bitwarden, or is in another repo, like IzzyOnDroid.
