Developers, developers, developers. I have no desire to develop for a closed system, where every tiny code snippet needs a license or ground-up development before assembling an app of any significance. Instantly leveraging open source modules/objects for inclusion in a new app makes a great many tasks approachable which would otherwise require too much time, money, or red tape.

Apple fans can make all the derogatory comments they want about ‘geeks’. If geeks are moving to the platform, users will follow, as that's where development is taking place.

They started that stuff back when the Android userbase was tiny. Just more of their “standard operating elitism”.

Now what is their story? Are most smartphone users geeks now? I’m almost betting they will just start calling them “stupid”.
