- fabrice_d 11mo agoNo, the phone variant of HarmonyOS runs on top of a Linux kernel.
- nicce 11mo agoNope, the new version removed it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HarmonyOS_NEXT https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HarmonyOS_NEXT
- fabrice_d 11mo agoIndeed, I did not see that!
- rzerowan 11mo agoI believe thats being phased out slowly to be native app only with their multidevice HarmonyOSNext (mobile/pc). Once the major apps move over , last bits of linux will be excised.
- kaoD 11mo ago...if there is will, a nice state sponsor and an already existing effective infrastructure. Europe has none of the 3.
- kelnos 11mo agoCan it run all of the kinds of apps that people (in the EU/US markets, which is relevant to the discussion at hand) actually want to run? SalifishOS doesn't even do that, at least not for me.
- jajuuka 11mo agoIf I remember correctly they have had a translation layer for android apps since they launched. But it's similar to what Apple has done with Rosetta 2 where it getting phased out for native apps only.
- kube-system 11mo agoThe will to create an OS is 0.0001% of the problem. There are tens of thousands of applications that people need to use that exist only for iPhone and Android. There are dozens of functional mobile OSes. And OS isn’t useful unless it has application support for the tasks people want to accomplish, though.
