And that is great. PlayStore is the only reason left why I’m signed in to google on my GrapheneOS device, since aurora is too unreliable and I need some closed source apps. If there were more closed source apps on Accrescent in the future it might exactly fill the gap that f-Droid leaves with their FOSS only philosophy. Also AFAIK Accrescent doesn’t aim to be some kind of FOSS-Only or privacy focused app distribution platform, they just want to be a secure place for distributing and getting apps.
