There isn't much choice - F-Droid only contains Jerboa (not counting abandoned and broken Lemmur).
Yeah I'm not about to switch to the fediverse and not use fully open source apps. I install almost nothing from the Google play store. There's no need to use Google play services to make a lemmy app.
Liftoff is open source. You can grab an APK right from GitHub for build it yourself.
Liftoff and Thunder are both available right now via F-Droid if you add the IzzyOnDroid repo. I'm using Liftoff and I like it.
Cool. I might have to check that out! I just searched for lemmy in fdroid and didn't see it but that could just be fdroid's search or missing tags or something.
Oh, they're not in the official F-Droid repo yet, but they are in the IzzyOnDroid repo, which you can add as a source.
WefWef works great as a web app. Just open wefwef.app in your browser and click install in browser context menu.
Is it read only, or do you have to trust your credentials to third party service?
I believe they don't store any credentials on the server. If you really don't trust them you can also host your own instance. You can read more here
