Wow, some of the comments on that article saying Google should have made Android closed source are mindboggling. They realize they never would have had their current worldwide marketshare if they did that, no?

But maybe if they did, we would have had more people working on true linux phones 🤔 I’m a bit torn on this one haha.

I don’t think this article is right.

Competition is good. The problem is uneducated buyers.

It is confusing. If you have two apps on your phone that do the same thing, how is the new user supposed to know what to do? I’m thinking of Samsung and how they insist on shipping their own branded stuff that, for the most part, brings nothing new to the table.

Sad how far Android Police have fallen, as well as Google themselves
