F-Droid is littered with dead-end pet projects and no easy way to filter them out. Instead of wasting time on Filecoin pipe dreams, they should just fork Modrinth https://github.com/modrinth to handle Android apps instead of Minecraft mods. The difference in usability is night and day: https://modrinth.com/mods

F-Droid prioritizes privacy. Modrinth does not. Users who download apps don't create accounts and cannot even create accounts. This is by design. There are several clients that access F-Droid repos that add those features for users who are willing to pay the privacy cost.
