I've never opened the App Store on macOS except when forced to. I certainly would never use it to discover apps, I just assume it's flooded with crap publishers trying to game the system. Same thing on iOS... I rarely search for an app through the store. Usually the first thing I do is google for discussion threads on sites like Reddit.
