Alright, help me out. I had fdroid before but changed phones. What do I need to do to get fdroid nowadays?

You can go to their official website and download it - https://f-droid.org/

Personally I prefer to use fdroid through Droid-ify.

Thanks, I will give that a whirl. I remember about having to change some kind of setting - third party apps?

(I could probably figure this out through some searching but I also want this for people who have no idea where to start.)

The system will prompt you to allow Fdroid to install apps as soon as you download something the first time. Can't miss it

Otherwise, you'll find it under

Settings > Apps > Fdroid > installation of unkown apps

(or something like that, my system isn't in english)
