    Second, these restrictions don’t apply to any third-party app stores for Android that utilize the operating system’s purpose-built API for installing apps. In fact, Android 15’s restrictions on sideloaded apps are merely an expansion of a security change introduced in a previous version, a change that has not materially impacted third-party app stores and can still be manually disabled by the user.

    F-Droid should be unaffected, so this doesn't sound terrible TBH. Still hate Google though.

      I wonder if it's going to make installing the initial f-droid apk a huge pain though. Since normally you need to just download it in your browser and install it.
