Is there any good alternative? I think the main problem now on Android is Google Store wall. There would be much more Open Source alternatives if Android users could use another App Store. I wish we have something like an audited Store of Open Source only Apps.
- koopuluri 6y agoWhat is preventing you from installing another App Store? I got F-droid installed seamlessly a week or so ago to download Newpipe, and it sits perfectly fine alongside the Google Play store. Perhaps I'm missing something. Is it not possible to install other app stores?
- mcherm 6y agoIf you are a consumer using Android it is reasonably straightforward (at least for someone a little bit technically inclined... maybe not for the general population) to install a new app store. If you are a vendor of apps, it is hopeless. Approximately zero consumers will be using any other app store.
