Comment on Google gives Android users a way to install unverified apps if they prove they really, really want to

I feel like anything you want to get that’s not on the Play Store, you’re gonna be savvy enough to install.

Yes, that’s my point. Google making it so that you have to be a tech savvy user to install anything from outside the Play Store is why there is nothing outside the Play Store that a non-tech savvy user would be interested in, because why would there be is no is going to install it anyway. Fortnite was a big example where you had to download the APK from their website. It would never work after this change.

Meanwhile, TVDB doesn’t have an app, and IMDb and Wikipedia have shitty apps, so I’ve installed all three as web apps. You can do a lot with web apps these days. It’s not all inclusive, but it is something. And that’s on iPhone. On Android I actually prefer to use the browser (Firefox with uBlock Origin).
