They do that because Meta pays them to do that.
So, yeah, it's just it's not a good situation for anybody else.
And Microsoft really they tried to do the vertical integration with the Surface, but I just they're such a B2B company that it's such an afterthought for them.
We saw this with the Pixel for a very long time, the Nexus program, the Pixel.
Google didn't really care about the Pixel, and they still don't really care.
They're trying to care more, and the Pixels are really good now.
They're really, really good now.
But it still doesn't have quite the level of vertical integration that they would like.
Yeah.
And the funny thing about the Google Android features thing is that they also want to make Android a popular OS to compete with iOS.
And so they have to eventually give a lot of these features to the broader Android ecosystem.
And that's why Google does this awkward thing where they have Pixel exclusive features for like two months.
And then it goes to every other Android phone because they need other people to want to use Android in general.
And it's also why they had that weird bromance with Samsung for such a long time.
I like Android better than iOS by far.
And there's a great piece by David Pierce.
He tried to use Android for the last four months, and he used a bunch of different phones.
And he really liked the Fairphone 6, but it doesn't work on Verizon, so he couldn't do it.
But he went back to iOS because his conclusion was effectively phones are app machines and iOS has better apps.
And he relies on too many iOS apps to go back to Android, which sucks because Android is a way better OS.
