Android aosp becoming more and more barebone.
Yes and it is worrying. Google ought to make everything AOSP and but keep anything proprietary. They have nothing to lose so I don't understand why they are stripping stuff from AOSP.
They want people to use and be reliant on Google's version of android with play services and Google apps. That's what they have to lose.
With so many OEM's running to get Google Play services I don't think there's any risk they would lose that. Anyone wanting to make their own phone without Google services is going to have a hard time selling that phone.
Mostly it's only the 3rd party ROM's that use it the most, and they are a tiny niche.
Which OEMs don't include Play Services other than the ones that aren't allowed to?
OEMs selling smartphones in China. And those like amazon selling fireOS based tablets, TVs, and fire TV sticks.
