How did you install aurora store?

I’m curious because ive seen no issues with F-Droid (just had a few updates actually), and the F-Droid team have commented on this sort of approach before, including the method being used for installation.

I don’t use aurora, so I’m not overly familiar.

  I wonder if it is because you added that way, rather than from f-Droid or something.
  
  No idea. If I had a spare still running android (trying out postmarketos on a few devices) I’d like to give it a try. Maybe I’ll spin up a VM.
  
  What apps?

    I don’t think so, I actually updated it via f-droid before but resorted to sideloading the apk myself for faster updates.
    
    I’ve noticed it so far for my apps: Tilla (subscription manager), ChatGPT, Poe
