Hello everyone! This is my list of FOSS software I use 😃

Android FOSS alternatives to proprietary apps

Google Board -> FlorisBoard
Google Play -> Aurora Store[1]
Termius -> ConnectBot[2]
Discord -> Element
Xiaomi Fit -> Gadget Bridge[3]
Google Gmail -> K-9 Mail
YouTube -> LibreTube
Google Authenticator -> Mauth
Google News -> Nextcloud News[4]
Google Drive -> Nextcloud[4]
Google Keep -> Nextcloud Notes[4]
Spotify -> SubTune[4]
YouTube Music -> ViMusic
Google Chrome -> Mull

1- You need a Google account.
2 - The UX is not as good as Termius.
3 - The UI looks like garbage, but does it’s job.
4 - You need to selfhost a server.

    also open source, it was recommended on reddit, and I wanted an alternative to Authy, which backs up config in the cloud, encrypted.
