Exclusive: Google will develop the Android OS fully in private, and here's why
www.androidauthority.comNo matter the manufacturer, every Android phone has one thing in common: its software base. Manufacturers can heavily customize the look and feel of the Android OS they ship on their Android devices, but under the hood, the core system functionality is derived from the same open-source foundation: the Android Open Source Project. After over 16 years, Google is making big changes to how it develops the open source version of Android in an effort to streamline its development.

They’ve been locking down the play store, important features, and I suspect revanced had blown a gasket or two in meetings. Time to crack down, DRM up, and enshittify.
Time to break another monopoly.
