I bought a pixel 6a and have grapheneOS installed. In general I'm very pleased. What my current confusion is; how to reliably download apps?
Some have said use F-Droid - others say no and they offered some other "app store" which downloads APK direct from github somehow (I forget that name).
Can anyone offer insight?

I use a combination of f-droid and direct apk downloads from the github repos.

obtainium?
Personally i use lineage os without play store (MUCH better than shitty miui). I download apps from fdroid with some more repositories (guardian project and izzyondroid), aurora store for apps from play store and that's it.
Damn i remember how i used for a month ubuntu touch, and changed to lineage os because of absence of apps (waydroid wasn't working).

The short answer is - it depends.
Usually, everyone should follow the best practices of getting apps described in GrapheneOS website
