      FDroid is an alternative app store where its main focus is Free (libre) software. Free in the sense of freedom. They have also strong focus on tracking. Under app, you have “anti-feature” that tell you that part of its code is not opensource or that there is sensible data. :)

      You should visit their website. ;)

      Here is some info from their website :)

      F-Droid is an installable catalogue of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) applications for the Android platform. The client makes it easy to browse, install, and keep track of updates on your device.

      FDroid respects your privacy. We don’t track you, or your device. We don’t track what you install. You don’t need an account to use the client, and it sends no additional identifying data when communicating with our web servers, other than its version number.

      We don’t even allow you to install other applications from the repository that track you, unless you first enable ‘Tracking’ in the AntiFeatures section of preferences.

      Any personal data you decide to give us (e.g. your email address when registering for an account to post on the forum) goes no further than us, and will not be used for anything other than allowing you to maintain your account.
