Users are now getting Android's convoluted sideloading process, and everyone hates it
(www.androidauthority.com)
Anybody who has an opinion about these things and doesn't just accept everything Big Tech throws at them saw (something like this) developing for years, nay decades, and had plenty of time to move on. So who exactly "hates it" now? I suspect it's the typical Android App developer who always has one eye on monetization and is therefore willing to accept a lot of shit from the OS they're devleoping for until it affects them directly.
Not that I don't agree with them.
