Comment on Google will require developer verification for Android apps outside the Play Store

I’d argue it doesn’t “just work” any longer. I recently left iOS for Android, after 10 years with an iPhone. The keyboard was the first issue, the OS stalling and making the device heat up was another. The lack of actual smarts got a bit annoying, too. You ask Siri something and it goes down a k-hole.
I’ll probably end up on a Fairphone without any Google tripe, which is a shame, because I quite like my new OnePlus 13.
