Are there any repos worth adding?

BitWarden
GuardianProject
GuardianProject Wind Offline
CollaboraOffice
KDE Android Stable
KDE Android Unstable
Newpipe
Cryptomator
MicroG
DivestOS
Bromite
Cromite (Bromite Fork with newer releases)
Bromite is highly outdated. I strongly recommend either adding the Cromite repo, or the DivestOS repo for their Mull or Mulch.
Mull is actually already in the official FDroid repo.
Adding it to the list still.
Thank-you for this.
I've been using FDroid for some years but rarely see a list like this.
Izzy, bitwarden, newpipe, collabora office
Yeah, I hear it often from people who tried it. Still worth a shot once in a while, as long as they keep updating it
The Izzy repo may be popular but with getting more than 1000 apps in that repo which are also in the main F-Droid repo I've been hesitant to add it. What happens when Izzy repo has a newer version than the F-Droid repo ? The main F-Droid repo goes for reproducible builds and checks for closed source software and more. Izzy repo downloads from the app upstream, does a malware check and that is all it seems.
All F-Droid Clients won't install the IzzyOnDroid version if you have the F-Droid one installed already because the signatures won't match, it's a basic Android security feature.
IzzyOnDroid is actually a bit stricter than that, see IzzySoft Fdroid Index Info & IzzySoft Fdroid Inclusion Policy.
