As shocking as when I learned the cuisine in China is Chinese.

It would be more interesting if it was open source.
core of HarmonyOS is open source though https://www.openharmony.cn/
I didn't know about that, thanks
It's no surprise at all considering how ecosystem and China focused it is
National Sovereignty done right
It's just Android with a skin no?
It was when it started but that hasn't been accurate for the past two releases.
I googled an article, said they started off as modder AOSP and are now not able to run Android apps anymore?

The gibberish about HarmonyOS "optimization" makes no sense though. One doesn't simply rip out the whole kernel from an OS.
no
Thanks, we definitely did not need any further information or sources from your reply. /s
I keep forgetting that using google is challenging for people https://www.openharmony.cn/mainPlay/
I thought everyone decided “jfgi” in online discourse was a toxic years ago. It’s the same attitude as :
chemtrails make you sick!
How so?
go do your own research
If you’re going report on something, provide a little more information than just “no”. It’s more helpful, better for the community, and in 5 years time when the facts are different, there’ll still be a reference of what was factual in the past.
The flip side of this argument is people asking for references for things that are well known and completely not controversial, as happens to be the case here. We're not talking about some conspiracy theory. We're talking about the basic fact that OpenHarmony exists, and this fact is trivially verifiable. This is known as sealoining.
It's android based. They've tried to suppress all pieces mentioning it and they don't wanna speak about when the subject is mentioned.
It's diverged quite a bit now, and nowhere did I see anybody deny that it's android based. What's the source for "hey don’t wanna speak about when the subject is mentioned"?
The source is there : https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/02/harmonyos-hands-on-huaweis-android-killer-is-just-android/ It's explained also there https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/HarmonyOS into the section Criticism
oh wow an article from 2021 and a criticism section on wikipedia referencing the same article. Tthat sure is current in 2024!
I read it recently here and yes it's pretty old effectively. Since they done HarmonyOS NEXT apparently three times more efficient than Linux. It will not be compatble with APK.
