You can host your own repo (or someone else can) and just add it to the app
Adding a new source for every app becomes tiresome, especially when switching devices. I do see potential for a closed source repo managed like an app store, but adding a repo for every app adds unnecessary security risks (as the app specific repo can contain any number of apps).
Could you speak more to your security concerns about adding repos? To the very best of my knowledge it doesn't auto-download from all the repos, that would be crazy, and it for sure doesn't auto-install from them

Well, it'd better continue to be available, seeing that Amazon's devices don't support the Google Play store...
I have two Kindle Fire tablets (they're low-quality as general purpose tablets, but cheap and good for reading comics or books) and both have Google Play on them. Mind you, I had to sideload it for both of them.

Amazon Appstore will continue to be available elsewhere, including on Fire TV and Fire Tablet devices.

There needs to be some recourse here. Amazon isn't going bankrupt and closing business. They need to honor their customer commitments. After all, earn trust and customer obsession are two of their leadership principles

All 6 people who used Amazon app store on a non-Fire tablet must be very upset!
They used to give away premium apps like Epic does on PC, so even I have used them.
I was initially confused because I thought they were just pushing a mobile access pathway for the normal Epic store, and I had no interest in that, but Bloons TD 6 is pretty fun, so I was willing to give it a shot to see what they'll give away next month https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/mobile#:~:text=Free%20Give...

Amazon has become incredibly inhospitable. Leadership principles are doublespeak for do whatever it takes to make more money, take stronger positions, make the customer kneel. Did you know their returns can now take up to 90 days to receive a refund? It is just one of the many many ways. I quit recently. I couldn't trust anyone to act in good faith.

So, what are AWS TAMs going to use to have meetings with customers? Chime was really awful.
First thing I thought of as well. Every time I go to join an AWS call, in my head I'm thinking "oh, right. ugh." Hopefully they just adopt Zoom and not something even more obscure.
