    Anybody who has an opinion about these things and doesn’t just accept everything Big Tech throws at them saw (something like this) developing for years, nay decades, and had plenty of time to move on. So who exactly “hates it” now? I suspect it’s the typical Android App developer who always has one eye on monetization and is therefore willing to accept a lot of shit from the OS they’re devleoping for until it affects them directly.

    Not that I don’t agree with them.

      Sorry, do you mean developers or users, and where exactly do you think one can move to? IPhones? GrapheneOS is still restricted to Pixels and while the Motorolla collab is starting up they already announced that they start with flagship type phones, meaning expensive.

        These are by far not the only options.

        Wait, you didn’t even mention LineageOS? Since it doesn’t come with Gapps/Playstore it’s unaffected by any of this.
