I really like F-Droid for their scanning and privacy-first build system.

But I currently use Obtainium as I get way faster updates, where I would need to wait 6 months or so on F-Droid.

But a good in-between could be to get K-9 mail, Mull etc. from dedicated repos and use F-droids builds for less trusted apps.

I use Obtanium, but I also like to wander around fdroid categories and discovering apps to try. Is there something similar with obtanium? Where do you find new apps?

I use "F-Droid Basic" with some repos, most importantly IzzyOnDroid and use Obtainium for updating.

Yeah not perfect. But there is apps.obtainium.imranr.dev
