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.

Technically, you support google when you buy a phone that ships with licensed android including all Google's shitware preinstalled

[-] Luffy879@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago

Yeah, but unfortunately it is impossible to buy a phone without that

Used or refurbished phones already payed that once and will not pay it again. So technically, you are not giving a cent to google.
