in case you want to skip all the corporate bullshit, this explains the process you'll have to go through in order to be able to sideload an app on your own fucking Android device
do we normalize this and extend it to desktops too, like Apple is doing with notarization? should we add centralized signing to flakes or something…?
@xerz@raito I'm not shocked that google wants to go the apple way, but I don't support it. I should be able to sideload things onto my own device without giving a huge corp my personal data, pay a fee and agree to some nebulous terms of service
@mildsunrise@xerz@raito I don't even care for the term sideload. It's my device. I'm installing something on it.
I feel like windows at least has already normalized getting signed my a microsoft cert or whatever, it shows you a big scary warning if you run something that isn't. But bypassing it is two clicks; more info and run anyway. Or something like that.
