Yeah, that is just my experience and, of course, will vary with others depending on which apps you track with Obtainium, and maybe on which ROM you run.
I still find a bit odd how some people want to avoid F-Droid, being a reputable source that checks for anti-features and builds from source to make sure the final apk matches with the published code.
However, I am happy that there are several options to install and update FOSS apps in Android and derived ROMs: we can all choose what we prefer and have other options as backup.
