I’ve got several apps that were unsigned but trustworthy, and they are 64-bit, so I want them to run. Not every developer, especially for freeware, is willing to pay the extra expenses to get their apps officially signed. LibreOffice for example can be side-loaded and installed for free, but if you want to get the officially signed version from the Apple App Store it costs $10 to cover the extra costs. Many of my unsigned apps don't appear in the App Store though. If Catalina blocks them from running, even though they run fine in Mojave, then that is another reason for me to not install Catalina.
But then what do you do if you want to run programs that need Catalina?
