Might be helpful to f-droid users to know what others are installing so here’s some of mine.
Web & email
social networking apps
-
Fedilab to browse mastodon, find it’s long press options really convenient for accounts across multiple instances. You can also use it for stuff like friendica but I find that awkward since it’s still using a UI meant for twitter-likes.
media/document viewers
-
NewPipe to stream youtube.
-
AntennaPod to subscribe and listen to podcasts
-
VLC, the Swiss army knife of media playback. Can play pretty much any local file and supports streaming(IPTV and the like) via m3u files.
-
Librera PRO for epubs, PDF, cbz ect
Misc android utils
-
AnySoftKeyboard virtual keyboard/ime with suggestions
-
Aurora Store to update webview
-
G-Droid an f-droid client with a UI I like and it supports reviews via a mastodon account.
-
KDE Connect for various linux desktop integration things
-
Lawnchair is what I use as my home screen app
-
Material Files file manager, find it to be more stable than amaze and it can extract several varieties of tar.* files as well as compressing 7z/tar.xz/zip.
-
RHVoice tts engine with English and Russian support and TTS Util which I can input text which RHVoice will use
-
Termux terminal emulator with packages
Games
-
Shattered Pixel Dungeon fun roguelike with cute graphics.
-
Frozen Bubble puzzle bubble like game with multiplayer support.
Post made using List My Apps and Markor
Was just about to recommend tusky, I like it a lot better than fedilab.
During a time between 2018 and 2019 I stopped recommending Tusky because it sent too much requests to a Mastodon server I managed per client and with just a client, mod_evasive in Apache with my adapted configuration arrived to the limit in comparison with Fedilab doing the same tasks.
Apache access.log file showed that was Tusky sending a lot of request to have up-to-date statuses and could not be configured.
