I would assume because Facebook was rejected by Apple, not Google.
But it's also not even at the same scale, as far as I understand Google Android limits background activity of side loaded apps. Android is open source and so handset makes can code exceptions in such as Samsung and the Samsung store, Amazon and the Amazon store or Huawei and the Huawei store. If you wanted to replace the preloaded Android with a custom ROM for your own store, you can (based on bootloader locking).
Apple says fuck you.
- zepto 6y agoWhy don’t we see an open Android ecosystem then with a superior environment for developers then? If it’s so easy to make a better store, you’d think someone would have made it for Android.
- happymellon 6y agoWe are. Check out the Pinephone.
- zepto 6y agoVery cool. I wasn’t aware of this. I wish more energy went into ‘Support projects like PinePhone’ rather than legislate against Apple.
