The ultimate F-Droid setup (300+ Apps)

Hope you will discover useful FOSS apps to free your phone from Big Tech^^

DISCLAIMERS :
Adding custom repo might not be as secure as the official one so I'm not responsable if you encounter any problems with them ! I encourage you to do your own research about it !
Also while open source is great for privacy and security it is not perfect. So keep that in mind before downloading any apps.
Most apps that I've listed are privacy friendly but some might be not be perfectly private and secure. I again encourage you to do your own research about them.
I am not a privacy and security expert. I'm also don't consider myself as a developper so I do not have any technical knowledge and so I didn't look into any source code of any apps in this list !
English is not my mother tongue ^^'
A clean Android setup with the best apps (mostly open source)
Everytime I setup a phone for a friend or myself I usually remove stock apps using adb or UniversalAndroidDebloaterNextGeneration and replace them with theses apps listed here. I added also a couple of nice to have apps that people might wants on their device.
Almost all of them are free as in free beer and many are open source (around 80%)
I tried to feature more applications and less services but there are several services still in this list, however I find them great and/or accessible (freemium most of the time).
FOSS = Free(as in freedom) and Open Source Software

Best EPUB and PDF reader for android. It's feature complete. You almost wish it was available for Windows too.
Its UI is very professional. I like its book arrangements. However, one issue keep itching me, is that, when you want to Highlight or select a word, the Dialog to search in dictionaries, or text highliting is very annoying. It completely covers the word upon which you wanna act. This has to be addressed like the display of this dialog must not cover/hide the word which is being selected.
There's no problem with opening most of the file formats, no crashes or smth else. BUT it really lack quality of life features. I used it mostly for PDF and DjVu, and reading these file formats doesn't feel comfortable. When changing pages, instead of return at the start of the page, is stands at the same place and you have to scroll each time to the start. It doesn't have auto-fit function, so you need to zoom each time to hide borders and make text larger. The page can be moved anywhere on the screen, instead of fixing it to the borders boundaries. I think among open source apps it's one of the best, as it opens a lot of file formats, but now I switched to ReadEra. It's just more comfortable to use. Maybe the only thing I now miss is custom interface color and background images P.s. make sure you download it from F-Droid, because the Google Play version has ads
While Librera has advanced features, it is also a very easy to use PDF viewer on Android. Once given permission, it finds PDFs in a jiffy. Even better than an easy link to Google Drive, once you set Sync option by scrolling down the 3-horizontal bar icon on the left side, your PDFs there show instantly.
Great functionality, format compatibility and has an F-Droid version.
tts continues to speak with the screen off. MoonReader+Pro cannot.
I love Librera as it gives me the smoothest format for my self-published eBook series!
