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?

    IMO the answer from a security perspective is that the Linux distro “official repo” model is about as good as it gets. However somehow we still have Fedora COPR, openSUSE OBS, Arch AUR, etc. Those are essentially like FDroid. If someone can solve the problem of why apps can’t be easily just added and controlled in the official repos, maybe we’d be getting somewhere. Seems to be an industry issue.
