The F-Droid app was created in 2009 in the early days of Android and lots of its code is still that old. While the ecosystem has seen many drastic shifts, the F-Droid community heroically kept the app alive with band aids and chewing gum.

        The update cycle seems to be pretty unstable, but it definitely does not only get updated every year. The last update was about a month ago. And the update before that 2 months.

        It’s definitely more than once per year (more like every 2-4 months). And as long as it works (which it does) I couldn’t care less.

      It’s good alongside F-Droid, doesn’t really work as a complete replacement.

        It pretty much does, at least for all the apps I want to use I have no need to use fdroid. If not, maintainers should probably publish apks and have reproducible builds
