I start with whatever is on F-Droid, and narrow it down from there.
Jerboa was the only option there until recently. I see Voyager and Eternity are there now. I'll have to give them a try.
I'm not sure why people insist on F-Droid, considering the F-Droid Security Issues.
I use it because, contrary to what that scare piece you linked would have the reader believe, it's better for my needs than the alternatives.
(I'm no stranger to software development and security, by the way. I understand the pros and cons.)
So an indepth and critical analysis of something is now a "scare piece?" Ok.
