I honestly don't want to tinker with my phone.
So don't? People seem to have the idea that in order to use Android effectively you have to rebuild the kernel every week. If you treat a Pixel like an iPhone, it works like an iPhone.

Apple is imposing its will on thousands of American companies and robbing them. We put up with it because we have to, but we've had enough. This is painful.

No, I don't want to tinker with my phone. So I don't, and as a user I'm quite happy with the situation on the iPhone.
I am happy with the situation for one simple reason: it just works. I hve to many things to deal with and tinker with elsewhere. I honestly don't want to tinker with my phone.
