In the GrapheneOS forum, I encountered a claim that F-droid is insecure (and not good at privacy as well). These links (and more) were given as an evidence:

While there are some attitude against FOSS app, I think the arguments are generally sound and in good-faith. Which makes me confused, as I’ve been hearing good words about F-droid in lemmyverse.

I am not good at assessing arguments, so I want to ask you guys for more aspects and information.

Also, if not F-droid, what should I use? Is Aurora store, a frontend of play store, not fine to use as well?

    I like fdroid hard stance against non foss software. Not interested in getting strangled by my own infrastructure. If fdroid people don’t allow it, I don’t want it.

    To me that makes aurora more potentially compromised by commercial interests. More tracking, less privacy, less secure.
