When I visit the f-droid website, my browser offers me to save a file with a random name. I cannot view the website at all. Any hints?

That could be your browser saving html instead of showing it.

Well... just saved one of those files, renamed it to file.html and opened it with the browser. Seems to be the f-droid homepage lacking the css.

What could it be? That doesn't happen on any other website.

The content seems html but the name is something else. On android the suggested filename is downloadfile.bin. creepy.
