Drip A tracking free, cloud free and subscription free period tracker. There are a lot of period tracking apps around, but most of them try to push a subscription on their users and putting that data into a cloud can be dangerous in many countries where abortions are forbidden. You know that some judge in Texas wants to have access to that data. Save yourself or the women in your life from subscribtion and tracking hell and switch them over.

Ahh whoopee, my bad. it was hard to piece together the conversation from modlog. Thanks for clarifying, deleted my original comment. For other’s reading this, the gist of what i was wrong about is below:
Originally I thought that the reason Heliboard comments were deleted were because of the use of closed source libraries for Glide swiping, but I was mistaken.

I queue up lots of things from royal road an other sources.
I use Noutube for youtube music and videos. It’s basically just a wrap of the mobile sites, but it blocks ads and plays while screen is locked.
Firefox. Shouldn’t need introduction.
Yes there are forks that may be better to use but let us not forget the one main browser family who’s been giving us a chance at fighting against
Malwarebrowsers with zero respect for our privacy.I like that unlike Chrome, Firefox mobile can use all the extensions.
Being able to have ublock and Bypass Paywalls is legitimately a killer feature and one of the reasons I’d never leave Android.
Being able to use JShelter and Libredirect on mobile is great
