Because F-Droid contains a minuscule fraction of the apps on the Google Play store and because since F-Droid only allows open source applications it's much easier for them to determine shady behaviour (Google can't simply mandate that all apps on their store be open source).
- lupusreal 2y agoGoogle could do that!
- coffeeaddict1 2y agoOf course they cannot. Literally, the Play Store itself and countless other Google apps are not open source. Google doesn't operate on a FOSS model (to the point that AGPL is banned in their company).
- lupusreal 2y agoGoogle could literally do that, if they gave a shit. The only reason they "can't" is because they don't care and never have.
