KaiOS is making a lot of waves lately. But Google is trying to get their hooks into it.

I only wish people didn’t so actively crap on all of these alternatives over the past decade because they saw a brand logo as some extension of themselves. We ended up losing great platforms that would have kept the power out of the hands of Apple and Google.

Instead of 7 OSs in competition, we have 2 in collusion.

Yup. I really wanted HP's system to stay alive. Apple, Google, Microsoft (and this includes companies that collude with Google like Ubuntu) want your data, and they want to track you. I just wanted a touchscreen browser and email client that fits in my pocket.
