Like Microsoft, Google seems to be forcing Power Users to Linux.

But, wouldn't we (or you) miss the Android apps? Interesting though if we could make that happen.

I think our best chance to have less influence from Google would be legislation from the EU. (Government of France ๐Ÿ‡ซ๐Ÿ‡ท is based: they're going Linux).

I dont know about all the Linux for phone. But I do know couple of them let you run Android apps. I think Valve might even be working on something for the Steam Frame. Which I assume could be ported to the phones.

And yeah I would miss apps. But Ill only be dicked around so much.
