    Not really.

    Fdroid is a secure repositorie and the applications are reviewed before being made available for end users.

    The repository is also highly focused on privacy and security and will warn if applications have security flaws or depend on non free services.

    As an example, I use NewPipe instead of the standard YT app and it has a warning it depends on non-free services.

    One other example I can give is Librera. It’s a very feature rich ebook/pdf/etc reader. At some point, a security flaw was discovered and the app was instantly flagged has having such problems and users were advised to not install it.
