normal people don't care about web apps or app stores. they care that they can tap-to-pay securely and effortlessly, and that there are pretty background photos for contacts. they care about mostly first party apps and tiktok and web browsing, and no they don't care about chrome or firefox or safari.
developers need to realise most of the world just wants a phone that works, and outside of nerds, they don't give a crap about who pays what to whom.
personally, as an engineer, i don't want any third party doing OS-level tampering or opening up secure areas of the hardware, nor do i want random power-hungry runtimes and code being ran. i want my phone to work the way it was sold to me, and i don't want meta or some leet haxxor's apps or app stores
