Actually, I didn't analyze the market or make a deliberate decision 😅. I just wanted to learn some programming and found a free bootcamp that taught Java + Android, and then things kind of took off from there.
Later I realized, though, that a bigger market means more competition. So maybe it's even more beneficial to specialize in such smaller areas, while not going too deep into super niche technologies.
Or ... just don't care about such things and continue programming, because that's what you really like.
Gem of an article, tyvm. What made you go into android dev instead of something else with a bigger market?
You're welcome!

I guess the level of competition depends on the applicants to jobs ratio...
Are you planning on working as a programmer? Or are you fine just doing it on the side?
Nope, I plan to build my career on programming and I'm looking for an Android developer position right now.
