I been watch related news since the first broke out, but I noticed all the news was just like "OakOS will be a better OS", "Hongmeng OS will be the Android killer", " HarmonyOS will be an alternative OS that can run on anything".
"Will be" is a very empty word, and I want to see the real info.
Just did and found a talk by a Huawei researcher about optimizing CPU designs for certain OS operations (instead of the other way around). Pretty interesting, thank you.
Huawei has stolen technology from its Western competitors on multiple occasions so I would not be surprised if they just stole most of Android and said neener neener state-sponsored anticompetition
Given AOSP, the core of Android, is open source, which is what allows forks to exist, including Amazon's, what's the point in "stealing" from Android when they can just use it legally?
Google's grip on Android is via Google Play. Replace Play with your own store, replace Google's proprietary stuff (email, maps, notifications) and you've got a ready to use fork.
It's really not that complicated for a big company.
All smartphone vendors could do it, except none of them have the capacity to recreate Google's ecosystem that's being controlled via Play. It's why Windows Phone was a complete failure.
Think about that for a second. If Microsoft couldn't bootstrap an app ecosystem, most companies don't have any chance.
And I'm sure Huawei could, but will it take off outside of China? I doubt it.
Is Android not (mostly) open source? So how is it stealing? Depends on the license and use but they say it is open source (let’s verify that) and if it is I do not think you can call it stealing? Or are you referring to something else?
