The biggest problem with F-Droid is that they sign the apps themselves, so if they ever get compromised, an attacker would be able to send malicious updates to any app installed via F-Droid. So now you need yo trust 2 parties (app developer and F-Droid) instead of 1. This is fixed by reproducible builds, which F-Droid does support but which most developers don’t bother with (F-Droid needs to start pushing for this more aggressively imo).
