    So what’s that App Lounge all about? I can find the GitLab and it’s related projects but nowhere how to install it, the APK file is on the releases (with 9 stars that’s not a great sale already) but they all have null pointers to files missing and can’t be downloaded

      it’s the default on /e/OS. i have no clue if you can download it otherwise. but Aurora Store, F-Droid, Droidify and Obtanium are all good too. (assuming obtanium is good bc ive heard the name alot of times)

      It’s part of /e/os. Basically it attempts to roll the functions of FDroid and Aurora store into one. I dont think it’s made for distribution outside their OS. For anyone on other platforms, Fdroid and Aurora will fill the same roles just fine.

      It’s part of the /e/os suite. It’s tied somehow to the eos version you have running. And if I’m not wrong, your apps from applounge won’t update after a certain point in time (or official android patch ?), until you upgrade the /e/os version.

      All in all, it’s not meant to be a standalone store, from my understanding
