They’re locking down their ecosystem, have lost faith in a portion of their userbase, and they can’t put advertisements on a launcher they can’t control.

Sound familiar?

    In what way would Google profit from restricting 3rd party launchers? I can see why Twitter and Reddit want to charge access for 3rd party apps. Profit. Lots of profit. I don’t see where Google would have anything to gain from restricting a very significant customization option in Android.
