Suggestion For OP

OP You should use Florisboard beta it’s good and also Obsidian is not open source.

Obtainium is great for updating apps hosted outside the playstore, big upside being you don’t need to bother with FDroid releases

Newpipe
Aurora store
Organic maps
PDF viewer
Molly
Audile
Jellyfin
Nova Wallet
Openboard (though seems dead and looking for alternative)
Internxt

THANK YOU for antennapod!!! What an incredibly beautiful app, I’m so impressed!!

If you use Organic Maps you may be interested in https://streetcomplete.app to help fill out the map

Catima - for saving arbitrary barcodes and stuff that are hard to integrate into other wallets. I keep my local library card in there, and it works wonderfully

Nonocross - fun little game that has zero frills and distractions. Also very responsive on their github to suggestions and improvements

Termux - when I need to get into things from afar, this is how I do it

Box, Box! - Formula 1 news, schedules, standings, etc

Coffee - Sometimes I want to keep the display awake, so this comes in handy

I use Feeder for RSS. Quite a good, constantly improving app. :)

Obsidian is Open Source? I switched to Logseq because it wasnt open source. A friend wasnt even allowed to install it on his Work PC becauze Obsidian wants 50€ per Year when not used at home privately.

Great lists so far. I’ll add one that I picked up from a previous thread:

URLCheck

URLCheck acts as an amazingly customizable and powerful intermediary when opening url links, allowing, among other things: to remove trackers, affiliate links, unnecessary elements, check Hosts, facilitating link holding and sharing, protecting against certain phishing techniques and many more…

I’m running openboard’s fork by helium! It supports glide typing, if you download a library! There are instructions in the app 🙂

I also recently found sayboard (available on fdroid), which has been working WAY better than I expected as a speech-to-text alternative 🙂
