yeah that was just a watch - and a samsung watch from seven years ago, i mean, lol - not something with a display that was ever usable for much more than time and some notifications. their curved fitness trackers / glorified step counters were pretty cool, though.

my money was on never shipping, so I lost that bet. but it remains a comedy os, I’m fairly convinced that will be evident shortly.

infernal machines posted:lmao. released only on a nearly depreciated "nest" brand product replacing the os on an older machine that's out there with a brand new one, while keeping the exact same UI thanks to flutter, seems like a good way to start out.  imo fuchsia won't get traction outside of stuff like this from google (i would be surprised if this ever landed in a smartphone. and if it does, that any OEM would touch it since Android already exists.), but flutter is showing its value proposition here very well, and that will long outlast fuchsia.

carry on then posted:i can't wait until every application looks and works completely identical across all operating systems, but completely different from every other application in the world working on Xamarin.Forms, before flutter, there were debates as to if there should be more push to have apps look and act exactly the same across the platforms (Like, use Skia to handle drawing all UI), or if we should use the native elements of the platforms as much as possible so it would act like any other app and "fit in". they went with the latter, and as flutter's continued growth shows, they were very very wrong. (Xamarin.Forms sucks for other reasons too but that's a topic for another thread)

The real test will be if fuschia is actually shipped by a non-google product. There'll be some real traction at that rate. I wonder if it will be yet another IoT operating system. https://www.theregister.com/2021/05/25/google_fuchsia_lands_on_nest/ Also, they are moving the net code from go to rust. I'm surprised that they used go in the first place.

i think this is more likely google abandoning wearos than it is samsung abandoning tizen. fuchsia for wearable coming out next month or so perhaps.

yeah it seemed like a play to buy your way into the existing huge fitbit customer base with lots of rabid fans who are repeat buyersmediaphage posted:also new fitbits will come running whatever this new os is going to be like buying a restaurant with tons of regulars who love the place, and replacing the popular secret sauce with crap scraped from the grease trap

they bought Fitbit because they are desperate to get into wearables but are incapable of making a low power device to compete with the Apple Watch

actually, having thought about it for a moment: probably what is happening is that upon fuchsia shipping a bunch of middle managers stopped writing pitches for dozens new unifying chat applications, and started writing pitches for new unifying operating systems. so this is just the first of twelve billion new incompatible efforts.

this isn’t really saying much but: samsung’s watches are 10x better than anything wearos has ever produced also samsung kinda was feuding with google for a while but they’ve essentially made up over the last few years, i think they both bonded over realizing they produce slightly different shades of garbage

i figured it was a defensive purchase - google was afraid that apple was in the process of running away with the entire wearable/health tracker market and locking google out of it and they needed to do something i assume it will fall prey to the same malaise and inertia that claims all of googles hardware products
