Aurora has been fine for me so far.

My experience might be better as I logged into the account of someone else to access some paid apps. Haven't had much trouble with the disposable accounts either, may also because I haven't used it that often.

Droid-ify is my personal favorite client. You can opt in to many other repos like IzzyOnDroid (pic below) It's also material design, which I like aha.

Since I found out about F-Droid and Aurora Store, I'm actively dodging the Play Store. No one will ever make me use it. Ads, promos, junk everywhere! And their shitty way of updating.

That makes sense.

Weird, I've not seen anyone I know use it in the past

Do people even use it? As soon as I say that Google owned this I got rid of it while debloating someone else's phone

True, but we don't get to choose a whole lot when it comes to Google. I personally don't have Google Services on my phone and would like to keep it that way - so I'm not up to date what Google is pulling off these days :)

If this gets world wide, I'd start wearing masks again if I take public transport. Gah! Money corrupts way too many!

I might have misunderstood this but Android really trying to push this as tracking as a privacy upgrade

~~Android~~ Google

This may also be known as privacy washing, but as another comment said, this way might be better than just not getting this choice at all
