Feels like it will soon be time to move on from Google'

It never was free, and it's as open source as OS X and the PS3/4 OS

suggest replacements

protip there aren't any

It's never really been open source, most of the Google branded phones were just piles of binaries, and the kernel piles of mystery blobs to interact with said binaries like my Nexus 4 which had something like 80+ proprietary bins that would take way too long to bother reversing considering a few months later 5 came out, then 6, 6p or w/e it is now. Can only imagine how many binaries are in the latest Nexus.

Another problem is GPL code, of which they don't want to use so Google came up with convoluted crypto kernel modules instead of just using standard cryptsetup/luks ect. Everything Google wrote was 100x more complicated and complex than it's simple everyday Linux counterpart so I stopped caring after Nexus 3.

Firefox OS is officially dead.
Sailfish is all but dead.
Ubuntu Touch has 1 from-scratch written browser that doesn't work with image captcha and won't store passwords.
I don't know how open Tizen is, but that's bound to be the kept at least halfway afloat for some years to come.

Symbian? Windows phone? Meego?

Only worthwhile mobile OS is iOS.
