   I'm not familiar with this space (new to Android), could someone explain why there hasn't been additional "app stores" appear that people can use?

      There have been, but most non-technical users don't care or don't go through the hassle of using them.

         Is there any that I should be looking into?

            F-droid is the biggest one

               Check out droidify or neo store for a better front end to f-droid

                  I use Foxy Droid.

                  It's unfortunate the official f-droid client is an unusable mess. (I stopped using it years ago, maybe they fixed it.)

                  There's also f-droid classic, can't remember why I use foxy droid over it.
