I’ve been using Book Reader https://www.f-droid.org/packages/com.github.axet.bookreader/

I use Simple Notes for my weekly shopping list. Most checklist apps keep the checked off items for reuse.

• Paper calendar
• Simple Calendar from FDroid. I don’t have very many appointments so doing a database export and syncing to other devices with Syncthing-fork works for me.

I use Newpipe to watch videos without ads. It also works well for downloading the videos.

https://www.techrepublic.com/rssfeeds/ has one called “open source”. I haven’t gotten around to subbing.

These are the ones I am subbed to that I tag as “privacy”. Maybe some of them will interest you.

I’m not impressed how this was rolled out. Hopefully, they do better next time. They “upgraded” Jerboa so it doesn’t connect to a server that isn’t 0.18 without giving admins the option to upgrade their servers.

Now they need to fix Jerboa. Always starts on “Local” and “Active”. Didn’t do that yesterday.
