    Honestly people like to point fingers at F-droid but in reality the play store is way more problematic.

    Its much easier to ship malware with proprietary software

      Of course it is. F-Droid has real people analyzing and reviewing apps. Google Play has so many apps and they can’t be arsed to pay real people to review even potentially malicious software. So the bad actors simply manipulate their moderation algorithms.
