From F-Droid? Are you not choosing Aurora store? (Yes, I know what those apps are, I'm in the same region and time zone as you)

Not from F-Droid. I was just replying to the parent's claim that normal people don't need a lot of apps.

If I don't have a laptop or desktop, why wouldn't I have a lot of apps on my phone?

That wasn't what I was asking though... I was talking specifically about the number of apps through F-Droid. They don't seem to require updates every two days unlike the Grab superapp.

That limitation perhaps also drives the infrequent updates?

In any case, it's fine for F-Droid to choose that behaviour, but then it limits itself to a niche of possible apps.
