Why can’t people just buy Android phones that allow for this? They should change, not Apple and their users that like the walled garden.





I mean, you realise nobody is going to point a gun at your head and force you to sideload apps right?

Yeah but these companies will force me to install their garbage third party app stores to install their apps. I really just want one good, properly vetted app store on my phone, is that so hard to understand?

If you ever tried out third party app stores on Android you’ll see what I mean. See also the crappy launchers/stores major game publishers try to force on you on PCs.
