thats not what i meant, i meant that it just opens the door for malware. And even with android, how many people actually install apks? Not many, bcs everything is there on the play store.
Have a read of this: https://techcrunch.com/2023/12/19/all-the-changes-coming-to-google-play-and-sideloading-following-700m-settlement/
Sideloading is a lot harder on Android than it should be.
You just have to open the apk and click install, how is thay hard?
