Why? That’s a perfect example. There is no qualitative difrence between Microsoft Store and Play Store. Why quantitative difference in the market share would make any distinction in the terminology we use around the process?
So when I install an app from Fdroid, it’s only “installing” if lots of other people do it? But if other people don’t use it as much it’s “sideloading”?
If the MS Store and Mac App store made up 99% of installs, that might make sense.

I’ve already explained why. I don’t know what more there is to say. If you don’t get it, that’s okay.

“lots of other people” was not the words I used.
It can be both “installing” and “sideloading”. One is just more specific.
