- If any app ( regardless of the platform they are in ) you know of that is fully FOSS and doesn’t have any ads , tracking or any other anti features that didn’t make the list it is a mistake and you can dm me and i will add it. The same goes for apps that are not really FOSS or have anti features , Even though i have tried my best some mistakes could’ve been made or if the newer updates of one of the apps listed made it unworthy to be included in the list , the platform it listed on isn’t available for it or the link is broken you can dm me and i will remove/fix it.

As this post may not get maintained here is the post which i will always maintain :https://lemmy.today/post/6716339
I just want more people in Lemmy so the communities feel more alive :(
I think it has a good amount of activity nowadays, it definitely was a wasteland before the APIcalypse.
Me too
The first app I used was Jerboa. I didn’t dislike it, but as someone who used to browse reddit with Infinity and liked it’s look a lot, I ended up chosing Eternity when it came out (it’s a fork of Infinity).
Infinity still exists to, for those who still use Reddit, but it’s now it’s paid (because the devs need to pay for API access with Reddit’s new policy).
I just use Jerboa. Its simple enough for me.
What are the devs paying spez a billion ? Lol
Summit is not FOSS, OP.
I removed it
Ok.
I would love to see a brief description of each as well, or perhaps a feature matrix.
I’m looking to switch clients but have a few deal breaker features.
I prefer if it has a decent built in media player complete with controls, particularly timeline skipping available for GIFs.
And columns. I continue to just Sync currently because I can customize my column layout, and even specify how many columns in portrait mode vs landscape mode.
I dont get it. Do you want just a list? Search on F-Droid.
- Raccoon
- thunder
- muffed
- combustible
- liftoff
Or are there categories like
- platform support
- maintenance
- features
- bugs

Non of these are on fdroid and i have included some examples in the post
liftoff isn’t compatible with 0.19 and development appears to have stalled.
Doesn’t matter i am just building apps with specific requirment and that doesn’t include
Liftoff has been mia for six months
Maybe they’ll continue develop ? Who knows i guess i will add it then
You may want to add Izzyondroid repo
And those apps are all foss, raccoon is on github only
Thunder is my app of choice. Its on IzzyOnDroid and the dev team is super responsive.
I can only add it if you can present aource like a link for its github page or anything
Oh sure, my bad. https://github.com/thunder-app/thunder/tree/develop
Even though i couldn’t find anything about if ads are included or not i trust you so added
Nope, no ads.
No FOSS app will include Ads… you could just fork it and remove that part
Oh and @OP you might want to use [linktext](URL)
many Foss apps have ads on their play store versions. I think both Librera reader and My expenses do.
In case no one has forked a specific app
Is Summit not FOSS? I thought it was. I use sync but that is my favorite alternative.
It’s on GitHub to host releases but I don’t see the actual source code?
Yep my bad I misinterpreted the GitHub page due to inexperience. OP clarified in a newer post
Does it have ads or tracking ?
No tracking and I don’t recall seeing ads
Added
I’ve just installed Racoon and it’s really good. I’ll stick with it and see.
Racoon is decent, free and open source.
Done
deleted by creator
I have never used boost so i can’t really recomend the app like it . I personelly use jerboa and i like it. But anything should be better than boost as it is a privacy nightmare for an app for a privacy based platform.
? No drama intended, can you elaborate? I’m completely out of the loop.
Drinkable for making cocktails.
Vector Pinball for a light, fun pinball game.
Baby Dots to entertain my kids without harvesting their data or driving them insane.
KOReader for ebooks. It takes some setting up and getting used to but I’m happy with it now
This isn’t that kind of threaf its for lemmy apps only
Sorry, I’ll have to learn the difference. I just saw FOSS F-droid and went from there
No probs.
