Sort of, but you have to either mess with self-signing and reinstalling weekly, or trusting a 3rd party with mobile device management. Not great options.
F-droid is (of course) not available in the Play Store, but it’s trivial to download and install it from their website after allowing your browser permission to initiate app installs.
I’ll hold it. To pour it over their head. lol Edge the assimilated Chrome. most of their desktop apps open links in Edge instead of the default browser. I installed ‘no script’ on Edge and links open to a blank tab on MSN. copy links to my prefered browser. would be on linux except for one game I like
tried that once. I worked in IT for many years. server monkey. mostly used VMs on large rack mount hardware for linux/windows servers running various services for a college. forget what that system was called. mostly retired the last 10 years. windows 10-11 took away my left side task bar option and I quit playing the one game. thinking about a new linux box with maybe a windows partition for dos games. VMs don’t usually play nice with games.

Do 3rd-party stores work on iOS?
F-Droid works quite well on my Google Pixel
In iOS 15 we should see side loading of apps from 3rd party stores. I think this was the result of an EU ruling? Hopefully someone else can confirm.
You mean iOS 17?
Ah! Thanks. Yes I got my upcoming numbers muddled. it’s the iPhone 15 and iOS 17. My bad.

Ah so not really natively then.

You can just install a third party store and update apps through that easily…

It hasn’t been hit directly but the EU Digital Markets Act will make that behaviour illegal, among other things.
Personally, I just sideload a couple of apps and they tend to not have issues. It’s kinda nice

I use Opensuse for everything bar gaming. I dual boot to Win10 for any games I want to play. This setup works pretty well for me.
I did that with Gentoo and W11 but got sick of Windows messing with the EFI boot order and ended up nuking it. Proton games only from here on out.
Same, but with Arch and Win11
Same with Mint and Win10, but almost everything runs on Mint
Yeah, honestly Linux gaming has come a LONG way in the past few years. I rarely need to boot into Windows nowadays.
I do miss the AUR. I may return to Arch at some point.
