How about now? :)
Prolly cuz there aren't any awesome ones

Is it that really good compared to Jerboa?
I never used jerboa. On Reddit I used Apollo and voyager is basically the same which is why I like it so much. It’s very polished and it’s always getting better (and open source).

Browser list doesn't include Firefox?
Just because it's not on the list it does not mean it's bad :) Also there are Firefox forks like Mull, Iceraven and Fennec
Iceraven for the win!
Very customizable. :)
Firefox isn't FOSS. It requires proprietary APIs like Google Safe browsing and others. See the Fennec's deblobbing scripts and build repo for a more details: https://gitlab.com/relan/fennecbuild
Yeah, that is why I mostly have Firefox's forks and even on my desktop I much prefer LibreWolf instead of Firefox.
Nice list!
I would add RiMusic (ViMusic fork, since ViMusic haven't been updated in a long time) and maybe InnerTune
RiMusic (ViMusic fork, since ViMusic haven’t been updated in a long time)
I didn't know that! Thanks!
InnerTune also looks very promising!
Also this goes to show that F-droid needs a rating system IMO 🫠

Awesome list. Have you found any app for recording calls? (I live in Hungary and receive calls in Hungarian sometimes and would like to record them to translate and understand what the call was about.)
Also, I don't see anything for audiobooks. I use Smart Audiobooks, but was wondering if there are more open source options.
I use Voice by Paul Woitaschek (available on F-Droid). It has a nice, simple interface and a few really useful features. I've gone through dozens of audiobooks in various formats with it and haven't had any problems yet.

Thank you!
I see... quick search and I found this beauty, try it out, I haven't yet, but keep in my first sentence of it:
MOST PHONES DOES NOT SUPPORT CALL RECORDING. Blame Google or your phone manufacturer not me!
I've seen many stars coming in to this Voice Audiobook Player repository.
Any mastodon client? Also can I recommend the Right apps collection from Goodwy and Voyager as Lemmy client (I think they match the requirements to figure on your list).
I thought of Mastadom but I have never used it yet and that's why no clients. Thanks for suggestions. I know about Voyager but not Right apps collectiom from Goodwy. I will add Voyager soon but I cannot find this Goodwy collection.
Great. If you search for Goodwy in Aurora for example you'll find a bunch of apps starting with "Right". Here is the list on GitHub as well: https://github.com/Goodwy
I may have additional suggestions if you're interested.
Goodwy in Aurora
Ah, I see it now. Yeah, also a good suggestion, very minimalistic guy, though. 😆
That's why he get me: minimalism is my motto ;)
Another suggestion: Magic Earth for navigation
Also curious to know if we'll see you on mastodon one day? (my client is Yuito btw)

whoBIRD was an interesting find
One of the most interesting apps I found.
I recommend QUIK SMS as an maintained fork of QKSMS. https://www.f-droid.org/en/packages/dev.octoshrimpy.quik/
Thanks! Many people insistet on deleting it and now can be replace same as Bromite and Cromite not so long ago.
Thank you for this awesome list! I had terrible experience with OSS Document Scanner and Image Toolbox though.
The scanner would just distort every image like crazy!! Would 100% of the time utterly fail to detect the paper edges even against high contrast backgrounds without any patterns and under very good lighting. I did like 20+ photos and immediately deleted the app, it didn't produce a single usable result.
And image toolbox was just a pain to use. If you compare how you apply filters in e.g. Instagram to this app, the UX is purely frustrating :( Though the app looks nice and has lots of features :)
Sorry for all the negativity 😅 I'll try to be more positive by sharing my favorite Spotify alternative, which is basically a YouTube music client with premium features. The service remains proprietary but the same applies to discord. InnerTune

When Authy dropped their desktop app, I picked this up for 2FA: https://2fas.com/

Could use a video processing section
Yes right! I recently found Open Video Editor! I will test it and add soon.
I use video transcoder for quick crops and downsizing too
video transcoder
It looks nice but also abandoned. :c
No love for Cirrus?
