Google just pulled the plug on open Android development.

No more public updates — everything's moving behind closed doors now.

Unless you’re Samsung or another big OEM, you're not getting the inside scoop.

They claim it’s to “simplify” things, but it feels more like Google grabbing more control.

Sure, it’s still "open source" — but only once Google has fully shaped the release.

I'm a few weeks away from being off Android based OS's and onto a combo of FLX1 and Librem 5. Can't come soon enough.
