F-Droid only packages open-source software and rebuilds it from source, while installing from Accrescent would move all trust to the developer, even if the license changes to proprietary.

I understand that the author trusts itself more than F-Droid, but as a user the opposite seems more relevant.

I'm not really sold on the argument... Also constant push/hype of GrapheneOS (and the "attitude" of it's devs) is mildly annoying...
