There is also a dedicated build variant for Bangle.js on F-droid [1], Play Store [2] (which the normal Gadgetbridge avoids [3]) and also in our F-droid Nightly releases repo [4].

I switched to the variant for my BangleJS2 because it's way more convenient yo directly upload apps with the embedded function than: disconnecting from Gadgetbridge connecting to Web Bluetooth in Chrome, upload, disconnect from Chrome, reconnect to Gadgetbridge.

Also with Internet access, I can rely on the watch to poll OWM itself instead of Weather Notification which despite all my attempts, ultimately get killed as a background process.
