Honestly, if you're remotely interested in installing this then just get an Android phone and get real side-loading.

AltStore is more like a franchise of the App Store where Apple is still in charge, but doesn't directly run it.

What's funny is that here in Europe where this AltStore now exists, Android is clearly far more common than Apple already anyway.

> just get an Android phone

I hope you're joking. If you're an Apple user that's invested in their ecosystem "just getting an Android phone" could probably mean changing the way you do many things, resigning from services you were used to,, learning how to do things on the other side, and so on. That also applies when switching from Android to iPhone. It's just not that easy.
