People are getting enraged by every upcoming Android update. They are making it harder and harder to do open source/enthusiastic stuff on Android. They are doing exactly opposite of what they were supposed to do. They don't want you to Emulate, Virtuslise or Sideload. It is becoming a degraded version of iOS day by day. Atleast iOS got some AAA games in their arsenal. But what Android has? bloated adwares!
The only game that i liked was The Walking dead S1 and it's no longer available on play store! So i have to sideload it, but you can't do it too because Android will restrict access to /data and /obb folders.
If I'm trying to run Proot Linux distros using termux, Android will kill the process.
People chose Android because it had the freedom to do whatever the user wants. I don't know what is the purpose of the new high-end Android phone when it'll just run Instagram and YouTube. We will utilise nothing from our devices. Android doesn't have good games on their platform either.
Another reason why you shouldn't think open source=free
