    • Fedilab - my preferred fediverse app for mastodon
    • Jerboa - preferred lemmy app
    • K-9 Mail - email
    • Pixelix - pixelfed app. not sure if I like this or PixelDroid better yet

    • KeePassDX - password management
    • WG Tunnel - VPN connection, still not sure if this is the best option

    Notes and Documents

    • Orgzly Revised - note taking. for people not familiar with emacs something like logseq or safe notes might be better
    • Pinkt - bookmarks
    • Syncthing-Fork - synchronize files between devices

    System

    • F-Droid - technically it can install itself
    • Lawnchair - alternative home screen / app launcher
    • ntfy - runs in the background, handles push notifications for some other apps
    • Unexpected Keyboard - has the fancy keys that most android keyboards leave out

    Other Tools

    • Fennec - basically firefox
    • Organic Maps - sometimes missing info and it doesn't have traffic data. simpler than OsmAnd
    • PocketPaint - make art on your phone
    • QuickDict - offline multi-language dictionary

    I've got hundreds more installed, but those are some of my favorites.
