I can understand your preference to see the effort to create this new app store placed elsewhere
what? where?
are you implying im any interested in the phoenixconsole one? im sorry to disappoint you, but im fairly not. if i need current amiga software, so far there is any, i simply download it from developer pages or aminet. i just doubt all that hassle will have any impact on the situation and that the effort would be better put elsewhere and so far i mentioned that, i have been proven right for almost anything i said. anyway, today i simply dont even think that it matters. so please go on with the appstores or whatever.
But I think that this new app store is a valuable infrastructure building step, that will help some other developers, who do not wish to spend their own time marketing their software projects. They can now choose to offer their software for free, or put it up for sale at an attractive online store without needing to spend any of their valuable coding time messing around with their own online sales site, so it should provide them with more time to work on future projects.
im not a coder, but think this is irrelevant. there are a great number of other much more pressing issues that dont get addressed. its like pumping a leak in a ship that already has broke apart. you may win some short time and not let people realize that they drawn.
