    Installing from other app stores. Installing, but not from the Play Store. Installing from not-Google-controlled stores.

    It’s installing. Context can be given using this wonderful semantic device called “subordinate clauses”.

      Yeah exactly, and we reached all the way back to my original comment: you can’t just replace “sideloading” with “installing”, without adding additional clarification.

        You never wrote “without additional clarification”, as far as I can read in the parent comments to this one.

          I said in my first comment it would have to be “installing from outside the Play store”, otherwise it wouldn’t have clear meaning.
