> My gaming computer is already filled with like 8 different app stores each completely different then the other and a variety of privacy/security issues on each One could expect that someone on a forum called "hacker news" knows how to close apps after running + also disable their autorun at startup. Multiple app-stores are not that great, but still better than a monopoly of one company that takes a 30% cut for every product sold and in return provides an app that barely works (lags, constant updates, constant questions about password if you dont use it much). It's basically the same as having multiple icons provided by multiple games. They also had different installers and privacy policies. Competition among app stores means lower prices and cheaper service.
