    Literally why would I not just buy an iphone if google goes through with disabling sideloading

    Tap for spoiler

    Yes I call it side loading and I will continue to because its just what its called when you install through means outside of an official repo. using this term is not an acvnowledgement of any vind of illegitimacy of this process.

      Whether it’s the correct name or not, using the word doesn’t spread awareness very well. When someone hears sideloading they’d likely assume that it’s loading an app on the side aka splitscreen, and they wouldn’t care enough to search it up.
