So google did nothing with those malware apps and now is doing something with a legitimate, very popular app? It does not compile.

Is nextcloud malware? Yes or no. Why do they treat it as if it is?

They did do something; they introduced a privacy-preserving API to allow users to pick which files the app can access, and only certain apps (file managers, etc) can request the old storage permission and be published on the Play Store.

A cloud sync tool is also a file manager. I don;t know why people act like it isn't.
