@matigo Lots of ignorance that keeps living on, years later, I believe. Remember how that was the selling point for Android at one point? “It’s open”, they lied.
Some parts are certainly open, but that does not a complete system make. Specially when you want the google-specific parts.
But I have stopped correcting people who still let this fallacy fly around. I’m done with platform wars and I have no intent on being the corrector or errors all the time. I’ve learnt my lesson.
