It is not "sideloading" - it is just using a different source than Google Play, like F-Droid for example. And this will still be possible in the future - but the apps have to be signed with a developer key which is known to Google and after you have verified your identity as developer. This will make stores like F-Droid impossible as they are now, since F-Droid builds the binaries on their own based on the open source repositories of the apps (Github, Gitlab, Codeberg etc.) but using their own signing key. > Hence this question: > Q: What apps do you typically sideload and why? All, which I get from F-Droid and not Google Play. -- Arno Welzel https://arnowelzel.de
