I dont really understand why people want it. Many of us got this out of our system in our youth on Androids. The shit apps you have to sideload are 99.9% of the time shit apps. And thats best case scenario.

Because some people refuse to pay for YouTube Premium just to be able to watch videos or listen to music on YouTube. Some people want to download emulators. Others might want to be able to save videos and stories from apps like Tiktok or Instagram. Just because you don’t understand it doesn’t mean there’s no reason.
