Honestly, almost every third party store is better, if you can get rid of play services for it.
Well, Aurora is the only one and it's jalf broken and has a history of lacking development so the situation isn't great but I don't plan to ever get Play Services again ether
The only open source one, yes. But since the Apps in the store are proprietary too, i just have both (in my case Aptoide) in Shelter with Tracker Control.
I trust Aptoide less than Google so I stick with the apkpure website as backup but thqt's a lot less convinient for sure!
The problem is that a lot of apps break without Play Services.
All 10 proprietary apps i use don't, including Post, transportation, banking and Twint. Only thing that doesn't work is some ads in the 2 games i have. I don't know, maybe swiss companies are late in the enshitification game?
