    Worth considering that if users of open source apps paid for them they would have more and better open source apps. They are free as in free to see the source code and free for anyone skilled to customize, but they costs to develop and keep up to date in an ever evolving tech landscape.

    I'm keeping my GrapheneOS phone lean and mean and mostly use the provided apps. I added a few that I need to check in on my 91 year old Mom who has dementia, GPS track my motorcycle if it's stolen, etc. These only get privileges when running and GrapheneOS doesn't auto start them at reboot. One open source app I use is OSMand - the Open Street Maps offline GPS navigator.
