Yeah, it's not like Samsung can go make iOS phones. And I highly doubt any of these hardware OEMs could possibly pull off a software project that doesn't suck,

Yeah, it's not like Samsung can go make iOS phones. And I highly doubt any of these hardware OEMs could possibly pull off a software project that doesn't suck, let alone a whole OS and dev ecosystem.

Samsung already releases phones running Tizen to have a side bet against Android. The quality of software is not very important when your only competitor builds phones that are significantly more expensive.

  Tizen is a joke for app developers, it was already rebooted so many times, no one serious would spend a second trying to target the platform. 1 - Meego reborn as Tizen 2 - Tizen gets the Bada C++ SDK, with its Symbian C++ like flavour 3 - Enlightment guys join Tizen 4 - C++ SDK gets kicked out and replaced by Enlightment C libraries 5 - Developers complain that Tizen 2.3 drops C++ and is a C only experience 6 - Samsung announces support for .NET Core as high level native Tizen tooling Really, what SDK are they going to release next?!

    There was also a period of only allowing "HTML5 apps" (during the jQuery era no less) if I remember it correctly.

      It is still the case when targeting Tizen TV devices.
