Guess I'm immediately uninstalling F-Droid. That chain of events looks really poor for them.

And using what instead?

Nothing. I'll sideload what I need to. I didn't find it that useful.

Sideloading sounds like a massively worse option than using F-Droid even with this flaw. Humans are way more likely in making mistakes, and you lose a lot of safeguards in between you and the APK when you sideload. Also, you don’t get updates as fast, which is a whole problem in itself.

So, IMO we should not fall into that trap of immediately removing apps that had a security flaw and falling back to a way worse alternative (which sideloading is) instead.
