See F-Droid's contributing doc for more details. Templates for the contents of this file can be found here. Additional details on each metadata field's meaning and use can be found on their metadata reference page here. Here is what my metadata file looked like:

F-droid is very safe, just make sure to use trusted repositories because apps have to be accepted before they even get to F-droid that way. They have a list of trusted repositories found on GitLab.

here is a list of most known Repositories

I personally use Fennec FDroid. Its Firefox Nightly with removed telemetry, as far as I understood. - In this post you can find an explanation on how to get important desktop addons (NoScript, Ninja Cookie, CanvasBlocker, ...) to your android Firefox browser with a little hack. - You can also harden mobile Firefox through the about:config. There will come a dedicated post to the available options, but Mozillas Site already provides a good list of settings (not all are there on mobile). - I highly recommend privacy.firstparty.isolate = true, as its the exchange for container addons (isolates every site making them obsolete)

I use an app called Droid-ify

Fennec is different in other sites with different icons , https://www.apkmirror.com/?post_type=app_release&searchtype=apk&s=fennec , https://github.com/kitsunyan/foxy-droid. I do agree Mozilla is par slow in android browser development.

FOSS Store (fork of Foxy Droid) for checking updates.

I always feel a need to recommend the Foxy Droid client on posts complaining about the official client.

Also, when I was F-Droid or Foxy Droid to install APKs it doesn't open them up in package installer, I usually install and update APKs via Foxy Droid https://github.com/kitsunyan/foxy-droid

Yes, the app hasn't been updated in almost a year, but it works perfectly fine. Regarding the project, the dev hasn't abandoned it & you can check his response here.

Foxy Droid might not have received updates in almost a year but that doesn't mean it's abandoned.
