Hello,

what i mean by that is that if it’s possible that some companies like Xiaomi, Realme etc will continue allowing sideloading the apps? I mean they have already modified the Android source code, how hard it could be to just allow sideloading, isn’t it just something like allow_sideloading=true.

my guess is that Google services will refused to work on phones that allows sideloading, that could prevent other companies from allowing sideloading.

what are your thoughts?

    The only thing that might work is a Linux distro that becomes the new base for an Android-like ecosystem, maybe PostmarketOS or Ubuntu Touch?
