Can’t even customize a lot of things anymore. You like pure black as in #000000. Google says fuck you. You want to know what time it is to the second. Google says fuck you. Want to control your notification LED. Google says fuck you. Want to prevent apps from being purged from the memory. Google says fuck you. I genuinely hope something else comes along soon. And no I don’t want Apple, they’re even worse than Google.

Now it’s basically

Google

Samsung

    I wonder if Motorola phones would count since their mobile division was largely acquired by Lenovo (and as far as I can tell, are still open platforms)
