What I appreciate about F-Droid is how many eyes are on the same repository. Yes there are bad entries, but, having a million people refreshing six of the most popular repos is still a better scenario for people flagging and yanking bad apps than everybody and their mother offering an APK as an individual fork of a GitHub project.
It took me a while to get into brew on MacOS, but once I did, I wondered to myself why I spent so long just downloading random binaries from the Internet and running them? Life before a good package manager seems so quaint.
