But still better than Apple, yeah? Last I checked, still allows alternate stores, still allows sideloading (but requires verification), still allows customization, still allows OEM choice ..

You didnt say it explicitly what you'll switch to, but my assumption is that you were going to go to iPhone but isnt it worse over there?

Google while rapidly trending downwards remains marginally better on this axis, yeah. It's not the only thing I'm making a decision based on though... I haven't really made up my mind, but I am strongly considering an IPhone for a handful of unrelated reasons.
