though i appreciate the work of minetest team and other foss games, i think minecraft is on another level.

IMO, it is your judgement whether to allow a microsoft-owned game onto your otherwise FAANG-free phone, but you cant even make a consented choice on ios or gAndroid.

i believe you can sideload minecraft from outside the play store. its just installing another apk from an online website, though you have to trust the source.

it can be ethically questionable to start doing this for apps you havent paid for. additionally, if you do this, you will have to check manually for updates.
