Here are all apps with Antifeatures (supposedly):

https://f-droid.org/wiki/page/Category:Apps_with_antifeatures

Keep in mind that many of those apps have already been removed from
F-Droid, and apps with antifeatures are in the minority, so removing
them won't empty F-Droid's repos.

I think a better effort would be to patch the apps with antifeatures
(except those which rely on services like Twitter, obviously) to be rid
of them, so they can be distributed from the main repository.
