        Or fortunately. Adoption would be very quick and degoogling takes care of the privacy aspect if you want to ensure you’re not part of it.

          I just hate that 90% of the stuff that’s announced for the next major Android version is either part of Google Play Services (proprietary) or not part of the AOSP. Android is becoming less open source by the day. I would even argue that a pure AOSP phone isn’t usable nowadays.

            This is a consequence of the fragmentation. The only way to implement it to all is through the play services.

              I agree, but that doesn’t explain why Google is actively removing components from the AOSP, such as the Dialer and Message applications. Fast Pair support was also recently removed.

                This is to have more control by pushing their own apps. This argument is valid for the play services too.
