There are still 2k monthly active users on the Google Play version of #Fedilab, even though it has been shut down for weeks now. To get the latest updates, please use #FDroid.
I understand that some people can't use F-Droid (e.g. on a work phone).
But I would personally encourage everyone to never install an app from Google Play when it is available on F-Droid.
PS: I am still waiting for Google to remove my apps and account.

There's no need, don't worry. Whoever is interested in leaving Google Play can search for those apps, which are almost always available in some repo. IzzySoft is often my pick when I'm browsing for open source apps. AlternativeTo also tends to list if an app is available in a repo, be it F-Droid, GitHub or whatever.

As I'm among those that can't move to another store, any recommendations for another app like this on Google Play?
I didn't check if it already exists, but if not, I should build a small app that shows which apps installed from Google Play are also available on F-Droid.
It would need a bit of extra work when app IDs are different.
