Yeah, BTW the good thing about these stores is that they install apps normally, by launching the system APK install dialog, instead of the rootkit-style thing Google Play does.
- jhasse 10y agoRootkit-style installing is also possible with F-Droid :)
- floatboth 10y agoYeah, I've seen that option, but I like to keep that as a disabled option :)
- dingo_bat 10y agoWhat's the "rootkit style"? My searches for "rootkit style installation google play" did not result in anything meaningful.
- floatboth 10y agoIt uses special privileges to run the installation in the background. Google Play Services is frequently called a "rootkit" because of stuff like that.
