Google is an advertising company. Apple is a hardware/software company. They have very different incentives from one another. Neither are my friend, but one’s entire business model runs on psychological manipulation, the other sells iPhones.
I like that even if Google does something I don't like I can install my own launcher. Or buy a different device, apple is apple and you better be happy with what they want you to want.
