Hi, thanks four your summary and the pointer to the wireguard dev comment. I'll certainly follow up on this to better gauge the extent to which I'll trust F-Droid from here on out.

I've re-read my question and I've put the emphasis too much on the absence of F-Droid. I actually wouldn't have expected it to be part of GrapheneOS in the first place because it's easy to install for anyone who's capable of installing Graphene.

However, I was stumped to see Accrescent offered prominently because it does offer apps with privacy-invasive tracking and doesn't (and has no ability to) warn users about this. Considering the low number of apps in Accrescent, this is even more surprising because they probably know details about every single app in there. The Accrescent publication requirements do not regulate online-tracking at all. While I do understand your issues with F-Droid, I still don't understand how Accrescent deserves this favored place on GrapheneOS. I don't mean to challenge your decision but I'd like to understand how it came to be.

And yes, the Play Store is also offered but that has technical reasons beyond privacy. Anyone who cares the least bit will know that it's to be used cautiously. And it doesn't explain the reasons for why Accrescent is being favored beyond promising that privacy is important to them. Google would say the same, so do the F-Droid devs.
