I use obtainium (Github).
Better than fdroid.

Not familiar with it. How is it better?


Seems the size of the repo (number of apps) is pretty important. Does
obtainium have similar number of apps?

Obtainium downloads new builds when they are available.
It is directly from Github.
Fdroid reguires each project to support it.
There is no setup to obtainium.

I also use all the "fossify" apps.
