From where? From my own collection on my harddisks or from the Big Tech streaming services?

Recommendations are based on publicly available movie and TV metadata, not on access to personal collections or private libraries. The app does not scan local files or integrate with users’ hard drives.
As for distribution: Google Play was chosen simply for reach and ease of deployment at this stage. There’s no technical dependency that would prevent a more open distribution model.
An F-Droid or fully open-source-friendly approach is a reasonable direction, but it requires additional work and tradeoffs that I haven’t tackled yet. That’s a fair point.
