Hello,

Im in the route of degoogling my life, just recently installed GraphaneOs. Where do you guys download apks? I need Synology apks like Synology Photos. I dont see if it is published on official website.

How you deal with that? How to avoid downloading malware by mistake?

Ordered by preference, cascading down when it's not present

F-Droid : I'm used to it and know it relatively well
Accrescent : comes from GrapheneOS but very few apps
Obtainium : works well, very interesting principle, but limited shared configuration
.apk from Website or repository : no reviews so have to do due diligence, updates also manual but just works
Aurora : that's my ultimate fallback. I install it, use anonymous mode then uninstall it.

And yes FWIW I do believe obtaining apps for GrapheneOS is the most challenging part. Installing it with the Web installer was trivial. Using it is great, very convenient. Getting apps which are not in F-Droid, not straightforward.
