          When you go to “Add app” you can either add the direct URL (if you know it) or the next option down is “search”. When you tap search it takes you to another page that says “select source” and has check boxes for Github, Gitlab, etc. Make sure they are ticked then tap “select 4”.

          When it follow those steps I see results from multiple sources.

          Apk is a package file, grab the one that matches the architecture of your device, probably the arm64 one unless you know otherwise.

          They have an f-droid repo on the main page, would recommend installing that way

      GitHub is so effing confusing, I can’t even. You’d think I’d get the hang of it as often as I need to use it. I feel like UIs for the last like 20 years just get harder and harder for me to follow as everything is condensed into wordless little icons and countless images tile across my screen.

        I was thinking the same thing but then I realised that 20 years ago, most software UI was completely built from even tinier wordless images crammed into obtuse tiny buttons or hidden options in nested drop-down menus but we didn’t really have much trouble with it back then. Maybe we’re all just getting old and our brains don’t want to learn new things anymore. Curse you lack of neuroplasticity!

        image of Microsoft Word 97 with tiny image icon buttons

        image of an advertisement for Gimp (the GNU Image manipulation program) in the 90s with tiny image icon buttons

        image of MOSAIC browser from the 90s with tiny image icon buttons

        image of Netscape Navigator web browser from the 90s with tiny image icon buttons

        image of Firefox web browser 1.0 from 2004 using image icon buttons

        Images not mine but shamelessly stolen from a web search.

        I copied this from my other reply in case you don’t see it

        You can use Obtanium to pull from Github, Gitlab, and a few others, it has a search function. So you can search ‘Ironfox’ and it will find it on Gitlab, then Obtanium will ask if you want to install it.

        Obtanium is available on F-Droid, or from Github…
