Great to see so many good analytics tools pop up for bsky, I'm also working on one that primarily focuses on the fastest growing user accounts if you're interested: https://blue.facts.dev/trending

These apps have existed for many years now and the "business model" behind them has changed over the times. These apps are available on Google Play and F-Droid. Originally, the apps were completely free, and there was a "Thank You" app which you could purchase on Google Play. This "Thank You" app does almost nothing, it only allows you to change the color theme of the apps and is more meant as a "donation app" for the project.
Then, in 2018, the author decided to develop "Pro" versions of the most popular apps: Gallery, Calendar, Contacts, File Manager, etc. They can be bought on Google Play. These apps are still fully open source, you can build them yourself if you want, but much easier: they are still published on F-Droid, including the "Thank You" app.
Understandably, the author does not really advertise that everything he does is available completely for free on F-Droid. If you install it from there, please consider to donate. I find these apps to be usually excellent and have used them for years.
On the AppBrain page you can see the rating nosedive from 4.6 stars (out of 5) to less than 2: https://www.appbrain.com/app/simple-gallery/com.simplemobile...
I would be curious to know how many apps with a 1M+ downloads use these frameworks.
6% of the top ranked apps use Flutter.
"Internet Weirdos" sounds kind of negative, sorry about that, I'll see if the LLM can come up with something better. Or do you have a suggestion of what is a good name for your community?
