So weird that they're removing sideloading too...

Installing. Not side loading. That word was invented to sound like you're committing some kind of crime.

Too bad. The vast majority of the privacy community will continue calling it sideloading.

obviously, with that attitude.

I'll continue calling installing from F-Droid, Github, etc sideloading.
