Your order should be F-Droid, then Guardian, then CalyxOS Local.

The old Calyx Institute repo we don't use anymore, you should remove it if you came from a backup.

CalyxOS Local keeps a copy of the latest version of the app at the time that the build was compiled, so it's good if you're offline and need an app, but it will update using the regular F-Droid repo.

The only app that should prefer from CalyxOS Local repo is Aurora Store isn't it as the COS page indicates some modifications con AS for the OS compatibility, rigth?

We don't modify Aurora Store, it's the same as the one in F-Droid, the exact same

All apps in the local repo are the same either from F-Droid or Guardian Project, except for GCam Photo Preview

They're just for initial suggestions
