I successfully sideloaded F-Droid Classic to my Fire TV Stick. Original F-Droid was repeatedly crashing so I went with F-Droid Classic.

Anybody did the same? Any recommendations for TV / remote friendly apps?

      I downloaded Flicky:

      • Good: More usable on fire TV compared to F-Droid Classic
      • bad: Flicky does not have the “installed” list to keep track of downloaded apps

      And checking the settings i discovered security issues:

      • TLS verification was OFF by default
      • several third party repositories are enabled by default which are outside the F-Droid community
