    Currently, Aurora Store, including Nightly (2026-08-31), returns a “&$Server busy, please try again later.” error when attempting to install an application via an anonymous account.

    The most important part has been omitted. The problem is that anonymous account is just someone else's account, I suppose, proxied through their servers. So what got blocked are the accounts or the servers themselves, which is shit but not quite surprising.

    Non-anonymous accounts are still working as it's much harder to track and block them. They'll try to block them too, obviously, but not yet.

    Good point. I added that.

    I assumed that was the default intention, because we're here, and I personally want to only interact with Google anonymously.

    Fix your title. It doesn't match the link's title.

    I use apkmirror+obtanium, no point in using an app store to update apps.
