How is this going to be enforced if you are just downloading apks? It states they will enforce verification across sources outside of the play store. This doesn’t sound possible unless they just make stock android unable to side load

    Maybe time to think of Huawei and remove Google from the mix at least there I can side-load.

      Huawei no longer builds HarmonyOS on top of Android code, meaning APK files no longer install. It is a closed system, possibly the worst of all three considering its small, localised market share.

      Except that they are so hostile to open source and custom roms.

      I always check if they are an option since the phone is guaranteed to be free from google garbage on boot and I’m always disappointed.

      They could be the go to for everyone who hates google but they just shot themselves in the food instead.
