Yeah, but that doesn't help if you can't make apps that support the hosted services. Google is trying to have complete ownership of what runs on your phone.

    I hate this move and love my sideloaded apps. However, there are plenty of self hosted apps on the play store. It's just putting in a unique address at setup, not compiling a whole unique app for each server.
