That’s not why 99% of people buy an Android phone. They buy it because it’s the only alternative to iPhones, and they start at significantly cheaper prices than iPhones.

The people that buy Android phones for their “openness” are the extreme minority.

The fact that android wasn't closed like apple's ecosystem was the exact reason I rejected apple for android.
