Actually it works much much smoother now then 14 years ago when it was unstable crap.

what about rooted device!? many apps complain if there is a root access to user. in my view, rooting is a right, not a privilege granted by some corporation like alphabet inc.

that was and still is my prediction for android. although u.s. justice department lawsuit might make things more complicated. my guess is that u.s. justice department has bunch of wussies and become feeble when alphabet inc starts to use money and power. linux mobile is where it is, but my prognosis is still not good for android.

many apps complain if they don't have "google play services" installed.
