List of known repos that can be used with F-Droid. Might help anyone getting started who wants to see more software. IzzyOnDroid is highly recommended to really flesh out F-Droid.

    The repo of Izzy uses the APKs of the app authors (often the GitHub Releases). The main repo of F-Droid is built from source code. So Izzy gets faster updates, but the main repo builds from source code. Of course, the app must be open source in both.

        Yes, it could be. On F-Droid is a bit more “strict” way to publish an app than on Izzy’s repo.
