This partnership is a win win between Microsoft and Amazon. Users should be able to install fdroid too

  I got the impression developers shunned Amazon app store because it's a bad experience for them. Quite often am I seeing apps there that are many versions behind the play store.

    I always assumed it was just because nobody uses the Amazon app store. From a consumer perspective, the Amazon app store has no real reason to exist. It's just another place to download the same apps that are already in the Play Store, only with the extra hassle of needing to sideload it and set up a separate account from the one you already use for most other things on your phone. If Amazon is actively making the app submission process worse for developers, then that is a colossal failure on Amazon's part to understand their market position. Developers are not the ones who need Amazon in this relationship.

  If you can install fdroid, that would be great!

    Did some quick search, people on reddit are saying you can install any apk which means you can install it. It remains to see how easy it is to do so though.
