Tech writers consistently suck. We've had 3rd party app stores for a long time. Googles trying to make them worse, not welcoming them

3rd party app stores were installable through Google Play for a long time? You sure?

[–] RIotingPacifist@lemmy.world 28 points 13 hours ago (3 children)

If they are only installable via Google doesn't that make them 2nd party?

[–] thurstylark@lemmy.today 5 points 11 hours ago

idk, do you add, for 4th party? Double to 6th party?

Ooh, or square?
