micheal_1501on Ask HN: Why can't we have an open android and apple store

Yeah, If we could have a playstore or an appstore alternative shipped with new devices that would decrease the monopoly of these tech giants.

Recently My playstore account got terminated for unknown reason as none my apps suspended for copyright issues or policy violations. I got to know through various web articles that there is only 1% of chance of my account getting restored.

  I have invested last two years into android app development and now all that hardwork is gone for nothing in the blink of eye just because a fucking bot figured out that there is some crazy violation that I have never committed.
   
   Currently I am dejected don't know what to do and I don't want other developers to get affected in the same manner.

  So the question why can't we have a community playstore, appstore similar to package managers eg :- npm.

  Please somebody build such store and we all should force google so that It wont show a warning when we try to install apps from that store.
