Can somebody do a video or a tutorial on how to install Obtainium and Amethyst through it?

I want to make Obtainium the default way of installing Amethyst, but it lacks a step-by-step guide to help people at the moment.

There is a good walkthrough here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1_n0AT9mnE (too boring though).

The best one will go on our landing pages.

Do you recommend Obtanium over F-Droid for someone with a de-Googled phone? I'm assuming you want people to choose the Google play repository instead of the f-Droid one, if using Obtanium?

The PlayStore Catalog is controlled by Google. The F-droid catalog is controlled by F-Droid. Both are extremely centralized.

Obtainium downloads apps directly from the source. There is no catalog. It's way better for decentralization than F-Droid or GPlay.

Oh, amazing, thank you!

I see many advantages with that, then. Only disadvantage may be the peace of mind that f-droid/Google have vetted it, but like you say, that comes with centralisation..

Do we need a Podcasting 2.0 index type thing for apps?

The hardest part will be explaining what version to use based on the users architecture... Shouldn't 90%+ be arm64 though?

Where do you recommend to publish such a video guide?

Everywhere. But if it's really effective, this will be shared raw in Whats App chats most of the time. So, being small and in portrait mode helps.

I know this is a more general overview but if anyone is interested in learning about Obtanium as a whole this is great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiN37bn0OE8

Would advice as below be useful?

Generally, make it like an automatically self-displayed PPT with a few slides included

1. Omit the lecturing of usage reason, straight to the point instead

2. White background in general, displaying each operation step on the screen

3. Each step elaborated by words put aside the conducting movement instead of human voice explanation

4. Add background music (light one that whatever stress easing type)

Key point:

Simple and easy to comprehend, short length of whole video but clear enough.

This is a good one already made but not specific to Amethyst.

Thank you for the guide! I was able to set it up.

I started one but github downloads are down πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

One thing preventing me from switching to Obtanium is my "curated" mute list.

Could this be stored on nostr network as a private list or does a "security filter" backup/restore feature have to be implemented?

How does this look to you? Tried to keep it short and to the point.
