>Sideloading isn't a solution to this. The average user isn't going to figure out how to do that on their own (and if you disagree, then you're living in a bubble surrounded by tech nerds).
Disagree. I seen literal children figure out how to torrent stuff.
Also disagree. When Whatsapp was paid, everyone used to sideload it (Telecom services are bad that whatsapp was a very good option, but no payment option in my country). Some people wanted to sideload it because of internet issue, cheaper to got someone else to share the apk file. Sideloading was very easy.
