I’ve been using AntennaPod for years now to listen to podcasts. It works great and feels like a premium app.

Oh good! I’ve been looking for a replacement podcast app!

Leviathan@lemmy.world · 52 minutes

My go-to, it really works well, supports true podcasting.

Aves Libre is a nice photo app

CoMaps with Sherpa Onnx is an amazing combo for a map app that tells you directions verbally

Grayjay is great and also the only open source app to my knowledge to watch and download Rumble

To me Aves does some weird things, like when I scroll left or right the image is low quality and after a second it gets better. It’s unpleasant.

Fyi, GrayJay isn’t open source, it’s “source available”.

Open source means it has an open source license allowing you to fork the repository and make your own version. GrayJay doesn’t have a license that allows that.

Feudal Tactics rarely shows up in the “best of FOSS” lists or games lists. Yet I think it’s one of the most engaging and nicely balanced single player, local games out there.

Oh man game wise it looks cool but visually, it’s so ugly I don’t know if I can do it.

gedaliyah@lemmy.world · 4 hours

Yea, it’s not winning any beauty contests. But super fun turn based strategy.

DeathByDenim@lemmy.world · 11 hours

Oh yes, that one is great. I play it pretty much every day!

Breezy Weather is so damn good

Canta, can get rid so much slop right off the device without a laptop and adb. Then you can get rid of slop they slip in with updates.

Droid-ify. Much nicer interface than stock F-Droid app, but all the functionality.

Some overlooked ones:

OSS document scanner is so much better than using the regular camera app for scanning docs and receipts. Really useful.
