It does, you can download an apk and install it on Android.


Don't you have to enable some kind of global special access right? So it's not the same thing.


Yes, and its super hard now. When I installed the new android version the only way I could get fdroid installed was flashing it as a system app in the recovery.


You have to do that on Windows and macOS now as well...


I haven't had to enable some global setting to allow unknown programs on Windows 10. What are you referring to?


Last time I did a fresh install of Windows 10 Home I had to go into Apps & features and disable "Allow apps from the Store only" in order to install Chrome. Didn't seem to have to do that on Windows 10 Pro.
