Absolutely agree! GitHub scares people. And they get scared even more when Android tells them it is dangerous to install apps from unknown sources.
Not sure what the solution is here, though. Can't imagine the PlayStore would be ok with adding an alternative app store into their listing.
I think the middle ground now is to have an APK installed from a trusted website.
We cannot completely solve the trust problem, but at least we should not send people to the "github release page" which adds up more confusion.
There is no website that Android considers "trusted." It will always warn that you are installing from an unknown source the first time you try to install an app you downloaded through your web-browser.
Sure. I meant trusted by the user. Is the best we can get.
Sure, but if they are new to Nostr, they don't trust any Nostr related website yet, either.
Well, this should work on people that are at least sold to the idea of trying this thing.
If they are not positively inclined, then they are not intended audience, now.
In the adoption chart, we're looking for early adopters, not early majority.
