F droid is an app to download or update free or open source software. If you like FOSS, you’d search it before you search the app store.
For some people, yes it can fully replace the app store. For most people, it will replace the app store on some, or maybe even most apps, but there will probably be some proprietary software you need at some point which fdroid won’t have.
Imagine a world without
- Google Apps (cough location and license check services)
- Microsoft Office
- all the apps your non-IT friends are using daily
Then you can get rid of Google on your phone.
I run a degoogled custom rom and I can still use those apps (except for Google apps maybe but that would defeat the whole point anyway)
I prefer Droidify
That’s still F-Droid, just a different client
