[23:22:35] <exec> 08└─Not everyone trusts Google. I get a couple of apps from Play after a phone refresh and the rest from F-Droid. The only third party site I have used was for an old version of Icecat. A lot of people have no idea about software viruses on their phone. Many think it's safe because it doesn't run Window...
