No you fool! Don't you see that because Wish exists buying from Best Buy is also a scam?!
Honestly I don't get people like this. Are they trying to protect other people? I've never seen it framed that way, but it's the only reasonable explanation.
You really need to explain this to me. Assuming apple provides a security benefit, then the same benefit still exist if you do not use the sideloading, except for apps that do not want to get checked by apple.
But you only want apps that are secure also that are checked.
How is the ability to get (maybe) less secure apps a danger to you, given thst you will still use the app store.
