- tester34 6y ago>Plus there are a lot of other major open source projects that come out of Google. Way more than Microsoft, Apple and Amazon. Is it even true? MS does a lot of open source
- techntoke 6y agoYes if you compare the code base size and the core components. Microsoft still hasn't open sourced it's main consumer operating system and neither has Apple.
- perseusmandate 6y agoNot a valid comparison since those are core products of both companies. Google hasn't and never will open source Search.
- techntoke 6y agoAndroid is one of Google's core products, as well as web (including Chromium).
- andrekandre 6y agochromium is open source because webkit (khtml) was open source many useful parts of android are closed, and open source versions of most apps are languishing (calendar, contacts, dialer etc)
- techntoke 6y agoHave you checked out F-Droid lately, and how does this compare to Apple or Microsoft?
