I haven’t used droid-ify previously, downloaded it and gave it a quick look. UI-wise they seem pretty on par now, with F-Droid having better browsing, but droid-ify has zoom in app images, something I’ve wanted forever on the official app.

I can’t compare them functionally without using it for a while, so maybe someone else can talk about that.

You should try the F-Droid version 2.0, it’s currently in alpha but it is completely stable. They have revamped the UI completely, switched to Material You and it feels much more modern than the original design. It has a few new features too!

Been using it for a few weeks and it is just so nice to use now.

qBitController - Control qBitTorrent servers from your phone. UI is really great; I use it regularly to download some media on my server (an always on old laptop) when I’m at work.

Pano Scrobbler - Connects to Last.fm to scrobble any music I listen on my phone. Also nice UI.

Rush - Fetches and shows lyrics for songs you search or whatever is currently playing. Can handle synchronized lyrics and sync with your player.

Auxio - Simple music player. Of the few I’ve tested, it handles metadata the best, which makes it work very well with other music apps (Pano and Rush).

Keysh - Assign custom actions for the volume buttons. I use the default script which makes the buttons turn volume up/down on short presses, and skip forward/backward a song on long presses. I use it pretty much daily to control music without unlocking my phone (and not using the broken controls on my headphones).

MJ PDF - PDF reader, simple UI, very fast.

Material Files - File manager, nice UI and feature set.

Ruler (Privacy Friendly) - On-screen ruler. Comes in handy sometimes.

Binary Eye - QR and barcode scanner. Can preview and copy the text before handling it.

Hold on, the files for Caine’s and Bubble’s AI are written in lisp! Pretty nice detail they added there, since LISP was commonly used in early AI developments. Didn’t notice it before.

toplevel-tag support finally, yay! I’ve been wanting to use it in window rules to fix some windows that don’t go into floating mode properly and title isn’t good enough to target them. Been waiting for it for months.

I used Zed for a few months a while ago. It feels quite fast, good extension availability even for how new it was, and offered a comparable experience to VSCode, but without the bloat. Sadly it quickly started going down the AI editor/LLM infested route and most development went into that, meaning actual fixes and improvements were getting slower (part of my reason for leaving it). It also introduced a few unwelcome changes to their ToS, starting the forks you see today. But overall it was a pretty nice editor, it gets out of the way and lets you focus on work instead of tinkering.

Had to stop using it due to an intense graphical flickering when running on Sway that took way too long to fix, so I switched back to neovim while waiting for a fix and just stayed there.
