I'd even add that now 99% of the distro have a gui over the package manager. Have an android or iPhone? You already have experience in installing stuff in an easier way than windows
Unless you want to install older apps on modern Android. Then you need ADB.
Uh. Didn't knew that.
But that only applies to apps that have a lower target than Android 6, right?
Yes, but it could have been solved with a warning.
Instead I believe it just says that the app is "Incompatible".
Once there are some fundamental changes in the Android framework, these old apps will actually become incompatible. So Google wants to prepare their users for that scenario, and force devs to update their apps.
I saved this comment when I read it, not remembering the last time I would've needed it. Two days later and I had to use it, thanks!!
