    Epic never sued for monetary damages; it wants the court to tell Google that every app developer has total freedom to introduce its own app stores and its own billing systems on Android

    I wonder how this will work out. If the judge actually forces it, so many large apps might show up on alternatives like fdroid and greatly improve fdroid capabilities.

      Fdroid better stay as FOSS and privacy focused. I don’t want to see Spotify or some subscription brand bullshit up there.

        I don’t believe the F-Droid will ever be implementing any kind of payment processing through the app store.
