If it runs smooth and keeps all of the advantages of Android I dont see a problem switching OSs
>fast processors, non-trivial amounts of RAM
Does Google even realize the reason Android has so much marketshare is it runs on practically anything? This is going to bomb hard.
No kernel will ever be able to compete with the Linux kernel.
>Fuchsia really seems like a project that asks "how would we design Android today, if we could start over?"
Android is the most popular OS in the world, no way they're going to get everyone to swap to something new
>no way they're going to get everyone to swap to something new
You make it sound like people need to opt in to use fuchsia. Google are probably going to make OEMs only install fuchsia on their phones (whenever it's ready), and after a couple of years it will have a significant share of the market.
RIM literally died this way.
First they abandoned the programmers and the enterprise users for a completely new SW and HW platform. Then when the boat was sinking they tried the cross-platform bullshit.
Finally the new OS was a failure and they switched to Android, but it was too late.
I don't see the need for a new OS which is same as the old OS. Let alone if you have to program in dart.
This is pretty much Google saying "We don't want to make money anymore!"
No one gives a shit about Android really, the reason we all use it is simply because it's entrenched and it has a large library of apps that have built up over the years. Who would give a shit about their new OS? The only way this could ever work is if Google HEAVILY leaned on all the OEMs and convinced all of them not to ship Android phones anymore. Even then, we've long passed the initial smartphone rush. Everyone has a smartphone now. How many people are gonna rush out and buy the new shitty Google phone with no fucking apps? It's doomed from the outset.
>you can remove all trace of Google from Android
>bet you can't with this new shit
So this is their version of Windows 10?
MORE BOTNET
Here's what happens

ya no thanks
Does this mean rooting and making custom ROMs will be much easier?
Maybe it'll be compatible with Android apps like Tizen and Chrome OS.
It'll be impossible now that there's no GPL kernel.
I don't even know how to pronounce that shit. The name is retarded. They use the cuck license, so, obviously it's not gonna succeed.
Yes and no. It will be open source but it's up to the hardware and OS manufacturer to let you install operating systems. They can go full RedStar OS on you if they want and prevent you from doing anything. Just don't buy shit from any company which locks you down.
looks like shit, give me SailfishOS instead
This. We need a new sailfish phone soon.
>I don't see the need
They dont give a shit about our opinion, people will buy whatever we tell them to buy, google wants to lock its ecosystem like apple.
gpl prevents them in doing that.
fuschia is MIT-licensed
Who don't let me root my phone? As i know HTC is opened the bootloader.
fuck off ESL-kun
It's not like fagdroid developers can maintain anything close to the metal without screwing up.
Google wants to keep monopoly on their mobile OS developmnet. They're no longer interested in samsung and other cheap chink devs profiting from their ecosystem.
Dart will replace Java, literally apps would have to be written in Dart and they'd be available and I'm assuming Google starting this shit, they'd take measures in porting over the Android Apps from the Store into Dart-based apps, instead of Java.
>It'll be impossible now that there's no GPL kernel.
Isn't it still open source?
You have no idea what you are talking about, shut up.

That explain the S8 Microsoft edition

>Actual retards ITT think Google can't strong arm phone manufacturers into using Fuschia for their flagships with an Android compatibility runtime
>Implying it won't eventually come to budget phones as the specs required for Fuschia become commonplace in future years, or even just when Fuschia is released in the future
They need Google Play and they're in the Open Handset Alliance and have to run Android/Fuschia , have fun running a Mobile OS without Google Play
Java is a shitty language. It's infested with street shitters writing shitty spaghetti code with shitty formatting that wastes processing power and battery life. I'm not saying Dart is a batter language, but these aren't exactly big shoes to fill.
Just grab a supported phone, I've heard sony should have some kinda sailfish program.
>Sony
As much as I like the company they've been shit lately. I hope they don't abandon the phone in a year.
I've been hearing they're only behind google in pushing updates since restructuring.
Visit github.com
See "Pink + Purple == Fuchsia (a new Operating System)"
Enough information for me.
Java isn't that bad. Darts are what brown niggery people use to shoot at each other in the jungle.
>looks like shit
>no apps
>can't play your shitty free games and use your favorite shitty free apps
The bigger a company gets the more retarded they become.
does that mean no more lagdroid JVM hell?
Yes. It will be especially lag free because there will be nothing to run to occupy system resources.
oh you cheeky motherfucker
I wish Google would just try and fix android, namely by throwing their weight around to get OEMS and soc manufacturers to develop and provide support in a sane way rather than ditch android entirely
>No lienoox
Thank God
Why fix android when it has multiple years of legacy crap
>implying legacy is a bad thing
Enjoy losing all the obscure stuff and apps that were built up over the years, a fuchsia phone will be less functional than an android one for at least several years.
>wild new UI
This is never a good thing. It will be dumbed down as fuck mobilekid oriented trash
You're aware Google's already made a runtime for Chrome, it could run android apps as a stopgap solution
And a lot of those obscure apps really aren't worth much, like 50k flashlight apps or 300 battery savers
They only need to make it compatible with Android apps.
Google is now throwing in their hat into the OS arena where its been stale with *nix and windows for what the last 30 freaking years?
Not surprising since most fortune 500 companies doesn't like the linux style of licensing.
Good ridance, gpl is a plague. It almost killed Blender and most people in the blender foundation agree its a mistake but its too late now.
>microkernel
So they are making a phone OS based on a kernel that by definition will perform worse than Linux.
DOA
It using a microkernel doesn't necessarily mean the finished product will be worse than Android. BB10OS, for example, uses a microkernel and is far better than Android.

>the future is bright because all the new stuff built by nu-males, pajeets and "wymyn in tech" is gonna be golden and much better than sliced bread and anything before or after it
Google already dumped Dart for Typescript in their Angular framework.
Why the fuck are they still using it if it sucks? Why not just use Go?
>numale is now just the new nerd insult
grow up please
>I want to use a Blackberry clone morphed into a semi-modern touch OS forever that uses dated Linux kernels on purpose to give developers less of a moving driver target to run a Java VM
Android already has tons of fucking problems that can't be fixed by hoping they'll go away, like Tablet support being a haphazard mess, with different companies slapping different windowing systems onto it, bad mouse and keyboard support, horrible audio latency for pro audio use, the only reason it's so popular is because it was the only way for companies to make "iPhones" easily
A nu-male is a very specific type of person who has nothing to do with the nerds of the 90s or even 00s, too bad if you don't realize that.
