Does anyone here actually support Google’s Developer Verification?
I don’t. I’ve put a warning about it in my repo because I’m against policies like sideloading restrictions, forced ID verification.
Curious what other devs here think. Is Play Store still worth the hassle?
f-droid needs the app to be foss. maybe something like codebergXobtainium will work for closed source. There is also itch.io with the inofficial mitch client which could be worth a upload pipeline but i dont know
you can always just host your own fdroid repo, there’s nothing magical about it and it’s trivial for users to add it to their client.
Are there any relevant/common reason to keep an app closed source if its NOT for profit?
maybe preference or skill issue. so not really, no
