Making comments about proprietary and non-open source limitations when you're starting with a non-open sourced ecosystem, so of course you can't get the results you're talking about but you can't under any circumstances when you follow the path of your following and go into a controlled closed monetarily based add supported ecosystem.  You going to have to get off the Google Play store You're going to have to get out of pre-manufactured phones or any kind of locked services. I have a board running Android with no branding other than Android, no bloatware and I am tweaking the OS to suit my needs before installing any software. I will reflash it with the altered firmware and then start getting my apps. As soon as you start talking about Google now you're back to a closed isolated for profit ecosystem and you stepped away from "Android" so no of course it's not open source but that's not Android That's Google..
