Same here in western Europe though, the screenshots take forever (they often never load) and icon caching would be welcome as well.
Personally I just look for apps elsewhere and install them through F-Droid when available (like Telegram, Firefox (fennec), piggybudget, OsmAnd, reddit reader, Öffi, K-9 mail, Newpipe, ssh connectbot, wifi analyzer, simple file manager & gallery, QR code scanner, muPDF viewer, etc. I all have through f-droid instead of the google ecosystem). The only exception is the "new" section that opens by default when you launch the F-Droid app: there I browse when there is new stuff.
