Redmi Note 8 (Global) very slow after latest update and can't install 3rd party APKs
Also, when I was F-Droid or Foxy Droid to install APKs it doesn't open them up in package installer, I usually install and update APKs via Foxy Droid https://github.com/kitsunyan/foxy-droid

Yes, the app hasn't been updated in almost a year, but it works perfectly fine. Regarding the project, the dev hasn't abandoned it & you can check his response here.
