Yeah, for now. Android is barely open source anymore, the old apps were replaced with proprietary Google stuff. The Play Store locks everybody into Google's proprietary ecosystem and it can't be legally distributed with custom Androids. Now there's this hardware attestation business that ensures we can't hack our devices and apps anymore. I bet one day we won't even be able to install unsigned apps anymore.

It's all so tiresome.
