    More competition is good, but Facebook isn’t exactly my first choice to trust as an app provider - I’d rather have Microsoft. Maybe they’d even add some sort of Game Pass experience.

    Maybe it’s actually not that bad an idea. I’m pretty curious to see how this turns out on iOS specifically.

    I would never use it, but I don’t think it’s a bad idea. On the other other hand, I think most people would be confused if they had to use multiple app stores with some apps being exclusive to one of them.

    So, this mostly seems like a way to promote adware apps, like those silly casual games that all look the same.
