I have 115
I would rather compile the apps myself or trust fdroid than trust 50+ developers to have safe builds.

I also use Breezy Weather, it is really aesthetically pleasing.
I also use breezy, but i choose fdroid builds whenever possible. I appreciate the extra code monitoring/verification.
I used to use it, but now use Weather Master that's available through izzyonddroid. It's even more aesthetically pleasing imo and also let's you choose from more sources.
Whoa, thanks for this! I've been looking for something that isn't pixel weather, but matches that aesthetic because I'm partial to it.
Nice... But it doesn't allow data sharing (to Gadgetbridge, for example). So it's a no go for me, thanks!
I use it because it doesn't need location services i can set it manually. But still it's good

I have 20, but anytime an fdroid app updates I move it to obtainium. I don't have time to review all in one go. But I'm sure the number will get to around 50 eventually when I'm done moving all f-Droid items to obtainium
One. Lawnchair.
I have 49
11 including Obtainium
I see some apps there that are also in F-Droid
Is there a big benefit to Obtanium for apps that are also released there? My understanding is that Obtanium doesn't do any key verification of APKs, so I've only used it as a last resort
on Fdroid updates are slow ( you'll get update after 2-3 days) Obtainium works with app verifier.
OSS document ftw.

How many of them are "manual"? I mean, ones you had to configure goes to scrape from whatever website they are hosted on, etc.
I only have eight apps, and even then only one "manual". It's the most important one though... 🦜
All of them are manually added. It took me around 6 months
A list? Or the ones you would suggest to people
What list man
The list.
10, I probably could have more, but some are auto updated with Droidify and sometimes their inbuilt updater, tbh it is kinda a stressing factor to me knowing that I could have more apps there but I maybe don't know lol.
4 but none other than obtaining seems to be getting any updates lately, so kinda moot
Lmao same. Obtainium feels like the app that you use for Obtainium to update itself.
Maybe you don't use that many apps
