> the weird firefox os crap
I really liked Firefox OS, was an early adopter using one of the ZTE Phones, tried my best to acquire an Fx0 while I was in Japan but they wouldn't sell me one without a phone contract, I also crowdfunded the matchstick that never came to be.
I'm not sure what KaiOS is doing with it now, they're not very transparent.
- COOL_DUDE_2112 3y agoi'd have rather ppl creates some fork of android sans google trackers. one issue with open source phones is the divergence of talent means more unpatched vulns, imho. i don't have the money to experiment like i used to, so i don't like to comment on these matters -- i suspect kai, like many other projects, may struggle financially and go dark in ways that make ppl more paranoid than they should be rather than anything truly nefarious. if they'd done proper user research they'd have found lots of people wanna just do navigation and calls on the phone then hotspot to a laptop... but instead the os got bloated (imho)
