Comment on Google's plan to restrict sideloading on Android has a potential escape hatch for users
choochooMF@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoWhen 99% of installs come from one location, there needs to be a way to describe that other than “Installing apps from outside the default app store”.
Y tho. What difference does it make? Its the same thing.

It’s simply not the same thing and if you can’t understand how that makes it different, I don’t know how to help you.

Installing an app is not the same thing as installing an app? What difference does it make where it came from? Why do you need two different words for installing an app? Why does the distinction of where it came from matter when the outcome is no different?

Yes, that’s exactly what I said 😮💨

I didn’t say that’s what you said, I’m making a point that its the same fucking thing. Read the rest of my comment and answer my questions please. Or do you agree that there’s no functional difference and splitting hairs about where it came from is just a way to enforce corporate hegemony?
