I don't care if anyone has a Xiaomi, Oneplus, Samsung, etc. Each brand is using a modified version of Android, and they chose to be compatible with each other. But for example the "blue vs green bubble" drama is a thing specifically because of Apple locking their unsuspecting users into a closed ecosystem. And it sure isn't Android's fault for not being compatible with it.

The more power a company like this gains, the worse will it be for the whole industry.

bro, the are android ROMs... there are ROMs whose entire thing is privacy and removing anything google. Saying they're equal is making a bad faith argument "Apple and Google are evil so Android is evil" ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

Android is much more open than Apple ever will be. They aren't even in the same universe.
