So one of the giants will build their version of microg and it will be like with wine, proton and steam os.

Except that attestation (Play Integrity) exists, and its usage by the apps on the Play Store seems to be increasing exponentially (if I'm not mistaken it only takes enabling a switch now to have it in your app).

Play Integrity and Attestation are distinctly different things. Attestation is a far better solution as it's not literally controlled by Google like the Play Integrity API is.

GrapheneOS actually explicitly pushes for services to switch away from Play Integrity API or SafetyNet API towards the Android Attestation API for that reason.

And notably, long term if Google becomes an unreliable maintainer for Android, the other major Android providers are likely to coordinate a list of "approved signing keys" so that apps can use those with the standard Android HW Attestation API.

Ok, yes, I meant Play Integrity indeed (which is an attestation system).

That's what Google has been strongly pushing to developers.
