Are app bundles on Android a thing? Something like https://ninite.com/ for the 'ole Windows machine.
Should be easy enough to add to Obtainium? Could even be a "other stuff" thing. Publish your list of recommended FLOSS apps via #nostr, and install these apps with one click. Or, obviously, install someone else's public list.
Anything like that out there already?
Now that I think of it, the first thing we should build is an appstore independent app rating and review layer using #nostr.
Anyone working on that?

Hmm. You could just pinstr.app and create a pinned list of your recommendations.
Honestly we should start this trend. Pinstr is a beautiful app. It just needs more love.
Doesn't matter what you use to create the list imho, as long as a package manager like Obtainium allows you to one-click-install the list.
Not exactly bundles but I started developing an app like Obtainium with the nostr social layer on top. Very early days though. I have some ideas on how to improve the binary signing and verification process (currently mostly via PGP - if done at all), this coupled with webs of trust I think can be massive for security, privacy and UX
Any reason why this is not an Obtainium fork?
Interesting thought. Sounds pretty useful.
There's already the ability to export your Obtainium list to a json file.
The question in my mind would be how to use Nostr to share that small file via relays rather than a web server.
If we could figure that out, then it would broaden the use case.
We should fork FDroid and make a nostr-lightning version of it so that developers can sell their apps there. Actually I might be interested in exploring that (even though I don't like Android's programming interface)
Aptoide might be closer to an app market than F-Droid is.
