Yeah bullshit. What mobile is are they moving towards? Oh, Android OS? Yeah makes sense since there isn't any competition
Make it so
What ever happened to that other OS that was named after a color
Fuschia? That was a Google alternative to Linux that never panned out. It was weird with streams instead of files.
Anything closer to supporting regular Linux applications the better. Though I’d expect anything like this to just be Android with well funded alternatives to Google applications/services. Whatever happens will be good for non-Google/Apple/Microsoft directed platforms
You mean the brands that literally do this already? Pretty bad article
Google is kind of being invasive. Kind but kind of.
