Here are a few of my faves:

  • Breezy Weather - Nice weather app.
  • Diatronome - Tuner, metronome, and synth
  • NewPipe / NeuTube - I haven't found my fave tube app.
  • Suntimes - Information and widgets about the sun and moon.

I'm just looking for some recommendations. It's difficult browsing through apps with F-Droid. Thanks!

Droidify to fix the horrible F-droid interface

[–] mamg22@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You should try the F-Droid version 2.0, it's currently in alpha but it is completely stable. They have revamped the UI completely, switched to Material You and it feels much more modern than the original design. It has a few new features too!

Been using it for a few weeks and it is just so nice to use now.

But is it better than Droid-ify?

[–] mamg22@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I haven't used droid-ify previously, downloaded it and gave it a quick look. UI-wise they seem pretty on par now, with F-Droid having better browsing, but droid-ify has zoom in app images, something I've wanted forever on the official app.

I can't compare them functionally without using it for a while, so maybe someone else can talk about that.

No prob; just curious! Thanks for giving it a spin.
