I just got my question for a android web-server app marked as off topic. And I do see, that software recommendations are an offence to this clauseoffence to this clause. Ok, but why? I’m new to Android, and my ability to use, and utilize the OS is dependent on getting apps, which I can then use, and utilize to do things.

Since apps are a huge part of the Android experience, I’m not sure why asking for software recommendations is off topic. I am just now coming into the android community, and learning to use android. I do not know how to get everything I want to do done, but downloading apps is part of solving that problem. I feel the basis of software recommendations has a significant level of potential usefulness for new users, and can be objectively rated using the Stack-Exchange formatted website.

I would like to note, in other OS specific Stack-Exchange communities, "software-recommendation" is an acceptable topic.

I beseech thee, gods of Android Enthusiast SE MODS, can we consider software-recommendations, as an on topic discussion?

Can we get software recomendations added to on topic discussions?
