The same opensource app, downloadable on both stores but paid on playstore and free on fdroid. Is it legal and is it ethical? Why?

Is this your app? If yes then sure, it’s your app you can do whatever you want with it. ~~If you are still morally troubled then just offer a free apk for those who don’t want to pay but also don’t want fdroid (for whatever reason there is, I don’t know of any).~~

You can download an APK from the F-Droid website
