How do you get apps and updates?

I get apps from Aurora and Obtanium (github, fdroid etc). I'll download the odd app from Play store where it won't work otherwise.

I have Aurora and Obtanium set up to do automatic updates. Play store is set to manual.

My concern is primarily that I am relying on Aurora when that could be a risk. I think I read somewhere that the GrapheneOS team prefer Play store to Aurora - something to do with its anonymous logins.

Are there any other risks?

Thanks. Yeah thats broadly what I thought. I'm just reluctant to give Google more of my data than I have over the years.

I actually haven't looked at Accrescent yet. Ive been meaning to.
