It would be really cool if instead of having to install more app stores, the App Store app was like fdroid: a front end in which we add repositories. There would of course be apples repository installed as default, but on top you could just enable epic game's repository or the store's repo.
Nice idea. That would in theory, assuming it's optional, allow for screening of an app by apple prior to installing, to thwart malicious repositories.
