Can you have third-party Android app stores and access to all of Google services that have the same level of ease of access? Nope. If adding a third party app store was so easy Epic wouldn't be suing Google the same as they are suing Apple. I used to be a staunch supporter of Apple and Google as gatekeepers of their own respective ecosystems but the more I watch them botch the management of those ecosystems (from not stopping malware as promised, automation banning valid apps with days/weeks/months before resolution/restoration, app banning for political reasons that are questionable, etc) it's clear that an open marketplace is still the best solution. Time to level the playing field and update antitrust laws to account for more modern times.
