You can definitely see them going away from their "pro-developer" "pro-functionality" "design and user friendliness is a secondary" mindset though. I've been following Android releases since the first version in 2007, and it's probably what inspired me to pursue computer science. In all versions before.. 4.0 I think, whenever you clicked on a link that is a media of a different app, say a YouTube link in a Reddit app, it would say "Choose which app to open with" or so, but ever since 4.0+, the process is way oversimplified, with features gone.
