Alt app store for privacy-focused Android

Build a curated store for GrapheneOS users needing vetted open-source apps. Addresses Google Play's increasing restrictions.

Why now

Android's open ecosystem is fracturing—privacy users need trusted distribution channels.

Who for
Privacy-conscious Android users
Business model
Donations
Effort
A few weeks

Privacy-focused Android users lack safe app sources. A store could:

  • Verify app signatures
  • Host FOSS alternatives
  • Sandbox installations

MVP: Static list of APKs with checksums. Later add auto-updates.

Funding via donations or paid verification. Risk: Legal gray areas.
