Here's what I'm rocking:

Aegis
App Lounge
AntennaPod
Bitwarden
Dicio
Doodle
F-Droid
FeedMe (Not FOSS. Open to suggestions)
Firefox
FNG
InvizBox
Jerboa
Mastodon
Music Player GO
Obsidian
OpenLauncher
Organic Maps
OsmAnd~
Proton Cal/Drive/Mail/VPN
RadioDroid
RedReader
Signal
Silence
Simple Keyboard
Tasks (Not the built in. I love this one)
Unit Converter Ultimate
Wikipedia

This is just about everything I have on my phone. I'm on a FairPhone 4 running /e/OS. What's your load out like?

I'm looking for a new keyboard. Glad for suggestions :D

I'd suggest Feeder for RSS. I haven't found a perfect feed reader, but Feeder is at least no-nonsense.

My MVP FLOSS apps are

Kiss launcher
K-9 (email)
Fennec (slight improvement over Firefox)
VLC (media player)
Antennapod (podcasts)
Voice (audio books)
Newpipe (YouTube without the Google snooping)
Markor (notes)
Authenticator (two factor authentication)
DAVx5 (calendar and contacts sync)
- ICSx5 (adds ICS events to calendar)
Syncthing (serverless file sync)
Tusky (Mastodon)

All of those are from F-droid; I'm slowly moving to Obtainium from Aurora store to keep a couple of non-FLOSS apps updated.

You should try Mull and Fedilab

[–] halm@leminal.space 1 points 10 months ago

I did 🙂 I'm good with my choices.

No love for librera yet. That scroll mode for PDFs saves my life for technical documentation.

[–] 0x2d@lemmy.ml 1 points 10 months ago (3 children)

is there a foss alternative to niagara launcher?

[–] krimsonbun@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 10 months ago

I use olauncher which looks pretty similar, no icons tho

[–] tungah@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I switched from Niagara to KISS launcher and I'm really happy with it. Much better, IMO.

Thunder: Lemmy App

Feeder: Rss Reader
KISS Launcher: Home Launcher
NewPipe: PeerTube and YouTube app.
Omni Notes: Notetaking
StreetComplete: Easy, fun, and addicting way to make OpenStreetMap updates on the go

Tower Collector: Contribute BTS towers for the above.
VLC: Video player
WiFi Analyzer: Useful for improving and setting up WiFi networks.
UntrackMe: Transforms links into their OSS alternatives.

FlorisBoard with a custom theme named floristyle to make it look a lot like Gboard (Material You)! There's no auto-suggestions or glide typing (yet), but I somehow already got used to that haha
