More OSS apps need to be on F-droid if for no other reason than a backup.

There's a upper size limit of new APKs that F-droid will include. If they're too big, they won't be considered...

Sometimes if an app (that's not too big) gets turned down by the F-droid team, contact Izzy via https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/ and he might be able to add it to his repository.

He's super friendly and helpful!

Plus, add his repository to your F-droid and you have Obtainium on F-droid via his repository!

Yeah fdroid is the best option here. I've seen many privacy open source apps go straight to google play.... A huge mistake.

I don't think being on Google Play is a mistake at all. Do both. Getting people to use another app store for one app is a big ask.
