F-Droid is a free open source app store for Android devices which only includes privacy-friendly FOSS apps. You can follow at:
➡️ @fdroidorg
The F-Droid app store can be installed from the official site at https://f-droid.org
Google Play has been removing Fediverse apps recently, seemingly without explanation. It is really important that we have independent and accountable alternatives like F-Droid.

I just checked google play and fediverse apps are still there.
@fdroidorg
Some are there, but Tusky (the most popular one) was removed 😢

This isn't the first Fedi app that has been removed either.
@FediFollows @fdroidorg
Et pour #Tusky comme pour #Element, les commentaires pleurent parce que F-Droid serait trop lent pour les mises à jour.
Et donc parmi les utilisateurs-trices du fédiverse, il y en a plein qui préfèrent acheter chez amazon ou google, parce que ça va plus vite. 😭
Mais que font-ils sur le fédiverse, ces gens pressés, alors que twitruc va tellement plus vite ?
@FediFollows @fdroidorg And the F-Droid app is pretty accessible with screen readers, too.
