As others have pointed out, Google Play isn't as locked down as the App Store so there isn't the same incentive.
But the biggest question that always gets me is why anyone who considers the Android way fine would want to change Apple? Simply stay with Android and let others be. Changing Apple makes it just another Android-- you can't have your cake and eat it too.
- waboremo 4y agoExactly, you can't have your cake and eat it too. If you want to see yourself as a platform, you must hold yourself to higher standards as a platform. Hence, the DOJ ruling that restricting access to the platform is anti-competitive. This is also why Google is under pressure as well. This isn't just a "go to Android" situation, this is a "the entire mobile market is entirely anti-competitive due to Apple and Google being in bed with each other" one.
