I think with potentially lower userbase many foss developers might opt to get registered or stop supporting their apps.
Or they continue because they do know to believe in a better world and refuse to bend to Google’s CorpoKnee.
Yeah, but Google could make it so that development becomes really slow for such operating systems. Their ultimate goal is a slow death of FOSS phones-they don’t maintain AOSP out of the good of their hearts.
