Recap:
- No, AOSP is not going closed source. They are only releasing the Release builds now, not the dev builds. So he gets downvoted.
- He then dosent even get why he’s been downvoted, goes into rant about AOSP apps being closed source? (No idea where he got that from)
- proceeds to go into most generic fucking explanation how Open source is against data collection, which, like, yeah? You could have summed that up in 5 words.
- For some reason now its a rant about eSims???
This is just something someone would generate with ChatGPT and add their own told you so text.
AOSP has been being slowly hollowed out for a long time now. Turns out, embrace extend extinguish works pretty well if you do it verrry slowly
It’s about to get much worse. Once Fuchsia becomes a fully operational mobile OS Google will dissolve the AOSP permanently. The last remnants of the GPL will be swept away.
I am a little annoyed about phone going to exclusively eSIMs. My Linux phone that I try to boot up and update every so often to see if we’ve “made it” yet only takes physical SIM. Which I’ve read you can download an eSIM onto a physical card, but it sounds like a convoluted process, especially when your current phone only has eSIM. But I agree, that has little to nothing to do with open-source.
That whole comment is crammed into three sentences jesus christ
That’s how I write too.
