    F-Droid Basic

    Why, is the normal client visually different?

    It's not very accurate. Says a bunch of my Foss apps are proprietary.

    Here is the GitHub, however before I install it and test it I'd like to understand if AI was used, and what risks of using it are.

    All of em, so like ~60 if you count the preinstalled ones that are also FOSS.

    Oh hey lets see which apps i can swap!

    these are all the apps with alternatives, some of which arent even the same type of app (mastodon instead of tiktok)🙂

    Is there a way to filter out system apps?

    lineageos default apps identified as proprietary..

    shouldn't this only check for user installed apps?

    I think because it only looks at the app ID it struggles a bit. Another user on github mentioned their Xiaomi system apps were proprietary, but because they shared the same IDs as AOSP ones, they were labeled FOSS in the app

    Should be Higher (-2) because I have MicroG installed, and it misidentifies them as the proprietary GMS since they share the same app ID.

    The button to open in F-droid opens play store which is ironic.

    I got a low score of 37%, but only because I am running a phone that I cannot unlock the bootloader on to install another OS if possible. I have as many of those proprietary apps as possible disabled or try to refuse to let them have internet and/or data access using NetGuard. That sucks because I'd love to use it in conjunction with the VPN I am paying for, but that would require root, which I don't have.

    The time when I can get a legitimate Linux phone with something like WayDroid for miscellaneous things like PvZ2 Reflourished or my bus pass app or whatever else I might still want/need from android, cannot come soon enough.

    Almost Totally Foss.

    I'm looking towards migrating from Obsidian to Logseq MD. The official Telegram client is not completely foss and its server is fully proprietary, so until Matrix becomes good enough to try again to persuade my family and friends to use it, I'll consider this middle-ground. And for the last one, there is the banking app. I’m lucky enough to not have to use a complicated root hiding method or any Google services implementation... but a Foss banking app (No a crypto wallet) is a dream I would love to see in real life. Of course there are some propietary PWA I have to use too (Like Google Classroom) but is more libre not having them installed and discouraging their use.

    Update: I enabled LibreFind to show system apps and forgot that I have a dolby atmos module which is propietary and I must replace, only that Jamesdsp sounds worse in my phone. (image updated since it use to show 93% percent)

    Assuming that everything on F-Droid is open source: F-Droid, Syncthing Fork, Termux, Linux Command Library, Jerboa, DuckDuckGo, KDE Connect, Librera Reader, Material, NewPipe, NewsBlur, Pedometer, PeerTube, Simon Tatham's Puzzle Collection, Tusky, VLC and Warpinator.
