I agree, but that doesn’t explain why Google is actively removing components from the AOSP, such as the Dialer and Message applications. Fast Pair support was also recently removed.

I just hate that 90% of the stuff that’s announced for the next major Android version is either part of Google Play Services (proprietary) or not part of the AOSP. Android is becoming less open source by the day. I would even argue that a pure AOSP phone isn’t usable nowadays.

Bound to GooglePlayServices, unfortunately.
