I came across this tool/platform which looked like a useful way to get more functionality out of your android device if you're trying to avoid proprietary services https://www.openapk.net/

It uses FDroid and GitHub as sources

https://www.openapk.net/faq

Nice for discovery, but I'd still recommend actually installing the apps using either F-Droid/Droid-ify, or by adding the GitHub/Gitlab repo linked on OpenAPK for an app to Obtainium. That way you'll get updates.
