Google's justification for Android over Apple is it being open source and attracting this crowd and people they recommend it to. They have a very strong need for it or they would have stopped contributing years ago.
> GOS can just talk about the upside, their solution to this problem. That's great work. But they often choose to denigrate others, which is destructive, damages relationships (the most essential assets - especially when you have no money to offer!), and is myopic: GOS's sh-t stinks too; they f- things up too.
Look up false equivalence.
GOS isn't a trillion dollar company with a massive possible budget for quality control. Google can do better and they should do better.
If Google's internal issues (or deliberate withholding of source code) is causing a small group to surpass them in product quality then that is something to talk about. Especially without the ad tracking and data collecting money Google brings in.
If it gets Google to improve AOSP then all the better.
> would tell GOS to zip it. > Just zip it, be professional,
This is very rude-esp for a group trying to make Android better. I downvoted you.
