I don't care if anyone has a Xiaomi, Oneplus, Samsung, etc. Each brand is using a modified version of Android, and they chose to be compatible with each other. But for example the "blue vs green bubble" drama is a thing specifically because of Apple locking their unsuspecting users into a closed ecosystem. And it sure isn't Android's fault for not being compatible with it.

The more power a company like this gains, the worse will it be for the whole industry.

As an Android user, Android phones with Google Play Services are no better - in fact I'd say they're probably worse

    No at least you can side loade and install other app stores out of the box with android. It`s far from perfect but still way better.

    News flash, you can do that on iOS too.

    Edit: downvote away, my custom apps on my iPhone run great without jail breaking. Love all the wrong info on Lemmy. Good stuff.

    Nope. You can install any app with developer license. You can also jailbreak. Don’t bother replying to this comment, I’ve read enough brain dead replies already.

    Yeah, the customs apps, for which you pay a developer license for. Which need to be reinstalled every so often because Apple doesn't want you to use apps like that.

    They run so great though /s
