Ultimately that is your choice. I personally will not use researchxxl's version considering they appeared out of nowhere and there was 0 communication about the transition. For now I will continue to use Catfriend's version and perhaps switch to nel0x's in the future.

I noticed nel0x started releases on their Github.

Currently, I'm undecided about waiting for a F-Droid repo or just install via apk from Github and get update notices through rss.

I thought researchxxl was the catfriend version, just transferred to them

They got it from catfriend who vanished. Catfriend redirected it and transferred the app signing keys to allow updates from the catfriend version. This is also why fdroid and obtanium switched it over automatically.
Apparently researchxxl is a new identity made for this app, we don't know who they are.
