F-Droid gets its biggest update in a decade with new UI and smoother app installs

I’m using F-droid and it’s still the same, I haven’t noticed any difference :P

Furthermore, there’s that annoying Google law that blocks Android apps from being installed, and downloading apps like f-droid is quite complicated after that.

You can opt out of it by putting your phone in “developer mode” or by using something like LineageOS

I was thinking about rooting my phone to install LineageOS, but unfortunately, that plan won’t be possible because I don’t really understand how to do it, and I don’t have a computer or another phone to help me.

The only thing I’ve done so far is disable Google Play services, and I’m using a few microG apps instead. :/

You don’t need to root your phone, just unlock the bootloader. But yes you will need to hook it to a PC or maybe another phone to make it work. I did mine off a PC.
