In the GrapheneOS forum, I encountered a claim that F-droid is insecure (and not good at privacy as well). These links (and more) were given as an evidence:
- https://privsec.dev/posts/android/f-droid-security-issues/
- https://xcancel.com/GrapheneOS/status/1883895255142932816#m
- https://github.com/obfusk/fdroid-fakesigner-poc
While there are some attitude against FOSS app, I think the arguments are generally sound and in good-faith. Which makes me confused, as I’ve been hearing good words about F-droid in lemmyverse.
I am not good at assessing arguments, so I want to ask you guys for more aspects and information.
Also, if not F-droid, what should I use? Is Aurora store, a frontend of play store, not fine to use as well?
The one good thing about banks is they make these little plastic rectangles with metal chips in them that you can insert into a device at the terminal in order to pay for your stuff. No bank app required.
At least in the United States, these little plastic rectangles have a series of 16 numbers on them, followed by a date and a year and a three digit code.
