Google has quietly deprecated the Messages and Dialer apps in AOSP, and it could have ramifications for upstart brands and custom ROM fans.

    OK Google, you win. I capitulate. Next phone is going to be Apple. If it’s locked down, low customization walled garden either way I’d rather something with trade in value and a bit of snob appeal.

      Or just don’t buy a phone. The resources required to build a phone are literally destroying our planet. I wish I was exaggerating.

    Unfortunate, but somewhat of a formality. AOSP Messages and Dialer were essentially deprecated as it was already, and we have many projects ready to take their place.
