The comparison with Android and Google, I'd argue it's worse on android.
You can absolutely host your own open-source WordPress, and get plugins and core features using a mirrored server. It's a bit harder, but if you're anti-Matt, then you're technically competent already to do this. And the experience is pretty straightforward.
For Android development, many features that are really nice-to-haves require Google services. Yes, there are workarounds. But it's reinventing the wheel, creating your own systems, and can be a inconsistent experience for users.
Btw, I'm on the "Fuck Matt" train, because as a open-source contributors, he's making devs lives harder with his meltdown. But I also giving double middle fingers to WP Engine.
