A suite of open-source, ad-free apps with customizable colors - Fossify

I’ve been browsing f-droid when I noticed a bunch of apps like “Fossify calendar” that looked similar to apps starting with “Simple” - simple gallery, simple file manager, etc. I wanted to understand more on what are the ties and apparently, simple mobile tools are no good

So does someone know if Fossify are legit? Page looks iffy but code seems to be just forks.
Anyone has some info on them?

    The fossify apps are legit, I use them daily.

    This is the same or similar situation as OpenOffice → LibreOffice or OwnCloud → NextCloud (and to a lesser extent but more similar scenario, Audacity → Tenacity or various other forks).

    This is what true open source looks like in action.

      I recommend something like the app DavX if you want to sync your calendar to Nextcloud or something.
