Librum: Open-Source e-book platform
I've been rather happy with Librera, although when reading foreign languages, I prefer KOReader for its locally installed dictionary lookups (you have to add them). Note that these are both reader software, first, and not advanced library management packages (as far as I know).
The last I checked, Librera also had two versions on the Play store, with the paid pro (or whatever) version sending a few dollars towards the Ukrainian developer. Who's been donating to the defense efforts since the war started. Or was; that language now appears to be gone from the web site.
Anyway, for those not familiar with FDroid and/or who want to contribute to development other that via PayPal -- or, looks like now that would be Patreon.
For those who asked: Humble Bundle is another source of DRM-free ebooks.

Accessibility barriers with Kindle leave me wanting DRM-free books to read. Can anyone recommend authors who have their work available through something that isn't Kindle? I'm more than willing to pay for books.

Looks like it has been suggested at least once on GitHub. Maybe give a +1 to that issue to show interest?

Signal Introduces Story Time
That appears to be because Session uses Firebase as a dependency.
https://github.com/opendocument-app/OpenDocument.droid/issue...
Per F-Droid's definition of "the upstream source code is not entirely free":
https://f-droid.org/en/docs/Anti-Features/#UpstreamNonFree
This seems to be a case of "damned if you do; damned if you don't". Session relies on Firebase to get faster notifications from Google servers. This can be disabled in the applications preferences but changes the behavior from push-notifications to polling Session's decentralized messaging network, which makes messages notifications slower.
https://getsession.org/faq#push-notifications
For the sake of clarity it would be nice if instead of making such a vague pronouncement, F-Droid would specify precisely what about the upstream source code is not entirely free.

Why is libre office document viewer marked as having anti-features?
Searching on the project's Github project, there's an issue about this "The upstream source code is not entirely Free" on F-Droid meaning ?. I doubt you'll find a better answer than that.
What are some alternatives?
