Revanced, Cloudstream and coffee from fdroid

Speaking of coffee, cofi from FDroid is great for timing coffee recipes

[–] NightOwl@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

Coffee is awesome. Such an easy quick way to keep screen awake. Thanks for the recommendation.

Echoing others on the thread:

Bitwarden - used for all my passwords and 2FA WhatsApp - wish I could replace with Signal but network effects too wide Twitter - I'm too addicted. This used to be Flamingo (RIP)

The last spot could've been between Flamingo and Reddit Sync, sad times.

[–] Perhyte@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Tasks - My life would be a mess without this or something very similar.
Firefox - Ad blocking, dark mode, bookmarks etc. synced to my laptop.
My bank app.

[–] lea@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Bitwarden, Spotify, Aliucord

Wish I could replace Spotify but haven't found something similar that's selfhosted and foss.

[–] sunglocto@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 year ago

I absolutely love Aliucord. I've always thought that the UI on mobile looked really bad so using a MD3 theme + compact mode plugin fixed all my issues

Evernote (functional note-taking app), ReVanced (Youtube ads are a blight on civilization), My Boy! (Fire Emblem GBA series are my comfort games which get me through my bus commute. I would buy them on actual hardware if Nintendo didn't make it such an obtuse PITA with limited-time subscriptions to induce artificial scarcity.)

Considering that you can also use Amap and Meituan in WeChat, the new list would be:
