I had no idea. Thanks for telling me! In that case, im going to try to use the ones from IzzyOnDroid if avaliable
Edit: According to their docs, they do take some special security measures and I couldn’t find a case of an app offered on FDroid which had malware.
The closest to that would be Codeberg. It’s a nice initiative, and some big projects like LibreWolf are already using it.
I personally like F-Droid’s vetting process. It’s true that updates always arrive a few days later, but you can be sure they don’t contain any malicious code. Furthermore, they specify all of the antifeatures a program has, which makes it easier to avoid them. If you want faster updates, you can always download a program through Obtanium.

You do you, but it’s better if everyone donates a bit of money to a lot of projects than donating a ton of money to a single project. It’s not like a single individual with a normal salary could fund a project alone anyways.
Let’s suppose that 10 people have 10 dollars to give each, and there are 4 projects which they all use: Project A is the most important for 7 people, so they recieve $70. Then comes project B with $20 and C with $10. Project D gets no donations.
But if we ponderate them by average importance it would be: A=0.5, B=0.3, C=0.15 and D=0.05. If they had split their donations, the allocation of funding would have been way more efficient.
