I don’t think so but it seems you two are mixing Android and AOSP.

Android is owned by Google. AOSP is not.

I might be wrong on this but it seems to me they’re replacing in Android, the OS shipped with many smartphones, parts that have open licenses, i.e. parts from AOSP. Like they are replacing open parts of code with privative parts of code.

Uhm, what?

Wayland has been in the works for more than a decade. Granted, there’s some people having issues with it, with propietary hardware (nVidia) and not-so-common setups like two monitors, but it happens that they are the most noisy. For the rest of us it’s been great, stable, and feels snappier than X.

If you want to talk about shoehorning stuff into Debian, talk about systemd.
