Aurora store is starting to not work by days in the last weeks.

What is the plan team, how to get proprietary apps if Aurora store went down one day and never went up again?

    Somebody posted about Insular. It’s a sandbox for big brother apps. Since it’s on Play Store, I’m not sure that Google would allow something that prevents surveillance on it’s store. I’m trying to determine if it’s legit.

    Sometimes it stops workings for me. I just close the session of the anonymous account, then i stop the app and clear the cache, then it works again.

    I just use the Play Store in sandboxed mode on GrapheneOS. The other stores out there haven’t looked all that trustworthy, especially ones that modify the apks. Some are even on common spam blocklists which may be for things other than abuse by the store portion of the site, but it reduces trust.

    For anything open source I use Obtanium, the few proprietary apps I need I use the vanilla play store.

    I mean, could get GrapheneOS, it can sandbox Google Play Store. Would need a Pixel phone for that tho…
