@neatnit@fosstodon.org @fdroidorg@floss.social just curious, was this an app from F-Droid? And could I ask what you mean with a 24h barrier?

@Gina@fosstodon.org @fdroidorg@floss.social No, of course the virus wasn't from F-Droid! But it wasn't from the Play Store either. I didn't bother asking her where it came from, she would be clueless. The 24 hours is the "advanced flow", see the red part of https://keepandroidopen.org/ . It's supposed to make it harder to fall for scams and malware, but inevitably it also makes it harder to install F-Droid and other legitimate apps from anywhere besides the Play Store.
