Calling it already, one of the most popular apps around will be a wrapper around ADB in order to install new apps - maybe Shizuku or Sui?
Shizuku?
EDIT: I didn't notice it was mentioned already. XDD
App that mimics wireless debugging device and allows you to access ADB functionality locally. Widely used to perform actions that are normally unavailable on non-rooted devices. Some apps rely on functionality provided by Shizuku - for example, Canta, which allows you to delete any app, including undeletable pre-installed ones.
Yeah, I know. I didn't notice. Sorry.
If Fdriod could incorporate this it will not affect them.
F-Droid will probably get revoked if they allow apps like Newpipe.
Install fdroid ttaditionally via ADB and then fdroid will do the remaining?
