It’s just a shame that is to developers benefit and not consumers
That isn't necessarily true. A new store might
1. A new store might push more of the most suitable content rather than the most profitable.
2. A new store might give equal weighting to paid apps so that you can pay a one off $1 rather than subscribing $1 a month forever.
3. A new store might treat developers equally which is what Apple's store originally did until the big money names got involved. Got 5 similar different apps? A big name has 5 similar to your 5? You'll be told to make them all in to one container app losing four apps and the visibility without even being able to inform your users. Meanwhile the big name keeps all of theirs, and other big names hoover up your old app names.
4. Different charts might be given equal weighting so that you don't have to trawl through all the monetised stuff first before you can get to the genuinely free stuff.
5. Genuinely free apps might get their own section.
6. App news might be genuine i.e. developers with the biggest wallets can't buy a huge advert like the 'Today' one.
7. The charts might not be so static.
8. The recommended apps might get some variance rather than being the usual suspects.
9. We might even get an ad free store. Imagine a store where the developers can't rig the search buy buying keyword impressions. Much easier for the best to rise to the top.
10. The charts might actually be legitimate. Not rigged by Search Ads. Not curated based upon whether they make loads of money / have IAPs etc.
11. We might see indie developers come back. How often do we now see new, innovative and original apps in the top charts?
... this list could go on forever ...
