  I actually like that the F-Droid maintainers check over the apps and warn about anti-features/stop offering new versions if they enshittify.

    Their apps also cause tons of problems compared to the ones directly from the source

        They do not. F-Droid also compiles from the source, they are the same apps.

        They have problems with the build process and verification, also the software is sometimes out of date on fdroid. In addition I dont personally want someone else curating my software library.

    Its an open source software manager, you put in a source (like github) and it manages it (even doing auto updates).

        Basically it automatically installs and updates software directly from the developers with no middle man
