Go to your phone homescreen and look at the app dock (the bottom row that contains some apps and stays the same when you switch pages).

Which are yours? Any FOSS apps?

In my case, they are FDroid, Signal, Threema, Firefox and the defaul Samsung camera app. So, 80% FOSS…

    I thought this was an easy one, but turns out it is not.

      open source, but not free

      Free here means free-as-in-freedom. The free software definition and open source definition are almost identical, there are very few apps that are only one or the other.

    • ❌ Phone - com.samsung.android.dialer
    • ❌ Messages - com.google.android.apps.messaging (Samsung)
    • ❌ Chrome - com.android.chrome
    • ❌ Camera - com.sec.android.app.camera (Samsung)

    The thing is, I keep them there as a “last resort”, not as main use.

    Proton Calendar: same thing

    Jerboa: ✔️

    Tusky: ✔️

    Grayjay: I guess yeah to both (with license) ✔️

    M.A.L.P: check and check ✔️

    • IronFox (web browser)

    • Fossify Caller app

    • QUIK (SMS)

    • Molly (Signal)

    • Libretube (YouTube)

    • Thunder (Lemmy).

    Oops, all FOSS! :)

    The only proprietary apps that see regular use on my phone are my banking app and Spotify.

    • Firefox ✅
    • SMS app from Simple Mobile Apps ✅
    • WhatsApp ❌
    • stock video recording camera shortcut that came with my phone ❌
    • OpenCamera ✅

    3/5 and as I was writing this I found out I might be able to get rid of the video recording shortcut because apparently a software update exposed the full video resolution to OpenCamera… although I still have to test that.

    Phone, messengers/SMS, settings, browsers, and photo/video tools, in that order. Probably mostly because that’s the default location and where I’m used to them being.
