Google makes some of the best Android apps, but there are a slew of even better open-source alternatives. These are my favorite options.

    I’m also not certain that I love their stance on AI and AI contributions

      AI is the compiler of natural language.

      That’s a very worrisome position. If “AI is the compiler” that means the source code is your prompts/chats and the stuff in the repo is just build artifacts.

        That genuinely such a funny take that I didn’t even consider.

        I’m stealing that phrasing from you for sure.
