So with the recent tachiyomi issues and the migration to Mihon I'm nervous of their list of repos as they're all APKs I'm wondering if anyone knows of any that are definitely legit and from the originals that were self hosted?

I think OP means the extensions.

This, of course, can only tell you if an apk is malicious, it cannot tell you if it is not malicious.

Or acting malicious.

Additionally I would recommend running Eset on your phone. The free tier allows to scan apps.

here's the extension repo that the mihon devs use. It's just a straight reupload of the original extensions list, and that's where the community is centered around at this point.

The original tachiyomi also used apk extensions, it's just that the original list was baked into the app.
