What is your must have open source application available on fdroid?

New pipe - the YouTube front end is absolutely critical for my lifestyle.

    AppManager. Super stable, feature-packed app that can do nearly everything with your apps.

    AdAway. No ads in apps. At all.

    Simple utilities. Just very good replacement for Google proprietary suite of apps. Good design, feature-rich, simple to use. Developer is really awesome!

      NewPipe has only one problem: the inability to log into your Google account and keep your subscriptions and watch later playlist synced.

        “Problem.”*

        Those of us who degoogled see this as a pro not a con.

        I’d also blame youtube, iirc there is no way to export your playlists to a .csv, which could then be imported to something like newpipe easily. Of course, youtube doesn’t want to let you do that because the only thing keeping people from newpipe is really this “sunken cost” aspect to it.

          I want to degoogle, but I also want to keep track of which videos I’ve watched already across devices. Maybe Newpipe and similar apps need a self-hosted server companion app. Or maybe a plugin for existing server software, like I dunno, Jellyfin or Nextcloud or something. Maybe using RSS? I’m just brainstorming here…
