I will add on top of all the other recommendations, in F-Droid settings, turn off all anti-features. If after doing that, an app you are looking for is not available, check what anti-feature it has for why it's not listed.
This seems really inconvinient, especially because the app page already shows the anti-features.
Anti features are also often not comparable, but they are presented that way. Relying on some random proprietary API owned by some random company is not the same as using Wikipedia or OSM.
I don't really see a point
Can do this or they natively list apps that have anti features on the app page as well as the search page under the app title. Whatever strikes your liking.
