WDYM? You're not compiling the source code yourself?

Short Answer: Each has their own set of tradeoffs. You do you.

With Obtainium I don't have to compile code but I can add repos or watch the app status on app stores.

You assume the compiled code represents what is written in the source code?

Does Zapstore compile the code?

With Obtainium I add the original app GitHub repo for example

I'll take that as a yes. That assumption needs to be addressed.

I don't think that Zapstore compile the code for you.

No, we do not compile anything. Packages come straight from the source (mostly Github)

Mynymbox - Privacy friendly hosting solutions 10mo ago

Great. I give Zapstore a try.

Yes.

You trust the developer on this.

A planned feature is the reproducible builds DVM, where different vendors can vouch for a specific hash when building from source. It would appear like checks or badges in the UI.

This is insane!
