I has come to my attention that some users have never heard of F-droid. F-droid is a free software app store for android (f-droid.org)

I thought fdroid was out of maintenance and they recommend droidify

No, it's definitely in very active development and put out version 1.17 recently

I can't find anything about this. Got a source?

I prefer the ui of fdroid https://youtu.be/IzpVI4zaso0 https://wonderfall.dev/fdroid-issues/#3-low-target-api-level-sdk-for-client%E2%80%93apps
