    Two, if you count users who have never sideloaded anything and never will.

      Never because they won’t be allowed in a year or two?

        Never will because they’re too scared of computers to step one toe outside of the walled garden. It’s a surprisingly big part of android users, according to my personal evidence

          It’s a surprisingly big part of android users, according to my personal evidence

          It’s 99.9% of users. The overwhelming vast majority of users know absolutely nothing about apps from anywhere but the built in store and don’t care to look.

            Which begs the question of why they bother with us.
