what I wanted to say is that from the perspective that we want users to have a good Kodi and media experience, that dropping Android support wouldn't be a bad decision. In addition it would also get rid of the annoying flood of Piracy-Android-Box support questions on the forum which I really can't stand anymore. Now being an Android-Box user myself because of Netflix and Prime, it would ofc be a pitty to loose it. And the misuse done by all the box vendors and sellers that want to make a quick dime with Kodi and piracy add-ons is not the fault of the Android platform in itself, but only Androids "success" as SmartTV replacement (for what reason ever people consider stock Android launchers with bad air-mice remotes as worth buying).
side note: I ofc don't have a cheap ass chinese box with cluncky air-mouse remotes and terrible UI but something decent

I also wanted to add, that if I knew now what would happen in porting Kodi for Android, I would have never done the port. I think that port has done more to damage the reputation of Kodi (pirates and parasites) as a whole than any other action.
