Reflection about the future of FOSS apps

Basically Google is trying to make android like iOS, giving more difficulties to our beloved FOSS developers. I think that Google is trying to isolate that percentual of users that use third-parties app on official OS versions forcing them to switch to custom rom, preferring to lose the customers​, kicking us out because they want the normal users. ​Google hate the fact that that operating systems like GrapheneOS exist​ because He lose his monopoly power when we buy a phone and we can do whatever we want with it. I made a conclusion that Google will never shut down AOSP because if ​he do that, people like us will start using alternative OSes like FuriOS or Ubuntu touch and having someone that dosen't use an iOS devics and not even Android and Google hate the fact that he can't made competition against Apple.

I know that what I wrote may seem conspiratorial, but thinking this made me comfort about that i can still use GOS and i hope that can help you in the same way, let me know what you think about it.
