There are things that can be improved in Android software, and some of those upstream problems, plus vendor add-ons, can cause phones to be buggy. But there are three billion active Android devices in use - buggy or not, it is in significant use.
It's also nice being able to compile AOSP (or in my case LineageOS), and sideload it onto my Motorola Edge 5G and be able to futz around with it.
