Cool project!

With obtanioum the indexer is fully decentralized, it lives in the phone of users, like rss feeds.

So, the real use case for this solution, as I see it, is to offer a nostr-based layer for indexing/distributing (npubs based chain of trust and so on....) but ALSO and more important, to offer a better way to store and trasmit the data itself (the apk in the android case).

Until it remains a layer-over-github it wouldn't solve any problem. Github could be censored and could limit the avain any moment, even when the fetches happens from relays.

A future integration with bittorrent 2.0 to permit to the distributors to be fully uncensorable and indipendent?

Thank you! Indexing Github is just the start. We'll index much more, and users will be able to swap relays - much like it's possible to swap repos in F-Droid.

Blossom and bittorrent 2.0 will be the major distribution methods as zap.store is based on on NIP-94

Amazing, thank you so much for both answers, I will continue to test it with that in mind.

My first suggestion, add some apps from home even before searching, list most downloaded by your contacts or just seach by categories. It feels strange to see it empty and sometimes we like to discovrer new apps.
