Does anyone here actually support Google’s Developer Verification?
I don’t. I’ve put a warning about it in my repo because I’m against policies like sideloading restrictions, forced ID verification.
Curious what other devs here think. Is Play Store still worth the hassle?
I’m pretty sure they originally planned to allow sideloading through ADB, but I might be mistaken.
I think I recall the same. Otherwise development would be a nightmare. But then again, that isn’t remotely equivalent to sideloading (as colloquially understood) and would still kill F-Droid. Not saying you’re saying it’s equivalent.
What Apple does is they give you a temporary certificate that expires in a week.
Works for development. Makes actually using your own apps impossible.
