    I just want the build quality and attention to detail that Apple does with all their shit, but also have the freedom to sideloard pirated apps from a sketchy Russian warez site.

      Works on Android:

      • The Play Store exists
      • All apps run in secured containers
      • Sketchy* apps run in VMs
      • Rooting disables banking and security apps

      (* including all versions of Windows)

        I think they also want the curated way that apple let’s an application into the app store.

        the play store is kinda not very restrictive…

          The Play Store has become way more restrictive, they’ve purged tons of old and/or “inactive” apps… including some I happened to have bought some time ago.

          It’s made me even more of a fan of F-Droid.
