I really don't like using Google products and I know there are a lot of others like me so having an alternative way to download would be great.

Once it is released, you can use aurora store to install the app. Boost will never be released on fdroid, since it is not open source and I doubt it will ever be.

Man that's a shame, I'll have to find another app then.

Check out "eternity for lemmy".

Thanks I've been using that it's pretty cool. Jerboa is what I'm using right now. I read through the privacy policy of Boost and I'm glad I decided not to use it. Loved it for reddit but since there are foss alternatives I'd much rather use them

It isn't open-source, so it can't be on fdroid.
