So we have these regular announcements like https://lemmy.world/post/48341079

The app stores listed there are only from the big hardware vendors. Not a single mention out of the Open Source world. I guess ut means all these developers were reasonable enough not to play along.

What do you think is going to happen? Is Google really going to cut them all down?

I don't use the Goole play store or Google play services, and that will most likely be the issue for me :( Not every app I use is FOSS and most can be side loaded and work with microG and I block all the tracking. I fear not the app store accessibility but Google forcing apps to use play services and all the tracking.
