RIP the only reliable website for grabbing APKs. I don’t even actually have an adblock on my side.
It’s still somewhat usable after you dismiss that message but CSS screws up.
Any good alternatives? I know I can use Aurora Store to get older versions of apps, but then I’ll have to find version codes for those somewhere. The advantage of APKMirror also was that it showed the minimum API required to run a specific version of an app (so I could find the last working version to install on Android 5 for example).
They’ve been around for years and well respected.

My misunderstanding! I thought they meant apkmirror was dodgy. I agree, that whatever.online domain is sketchy.
The fun of using AdSense or any other ad network. Surprise, Google doesn’t actually vet its ads.
This is why blocking adblockers isn’t safe, Google still can’t guarantee its ads are safe. At the same time, the site doesn’t earn without doing this. Tough spot to be in. This is why so few private sites are left, Google and the rest ran em out of town by controlling the money flow, or buying em up. Valnet didn’t go on a buying spree of the remaining private tech sites for shits and giggles.
Funny how the younguns now look at sites we’ve all been using for over a decade and think they’re dodgy. I wonder what they’d think of expertsexchange 😂
You have been using “07c225f3.online” for a decade?
Haha, I remember that unfortunate domain name! That said, some of the old respectable domains did become ad-ridden malware pushers - download, sourceforce, tucows .com for example.
