Is there any proprietary Android app for which you wish there would be an open-source alternative? (lemmy.ml)

Basically, what the title says. Do you use any app, that is proprietary, but either has no OSS alternatives or they're all not good enough? If there is an alternative, what keeps you from switching?

Vaultwarden ?

Edit: Nvm, that's just the server part

That's actually a good point too: Vaultwarden is fully open source. The official Bitwarden server also has proprietary components.

Yea but I didn't realize the vaultwarden project didn't also release client software.
I had looked into running my own vaultwarden, but without open source clients it's maybe a bit moot. Although I guess the web interface can be considered a client, OS or browser integration is a convenient feature.
