The thing that makes me think Fuchsia won't succeed at that is it will likely have a stable API for drivers, which means most of the drivers will be closed.

Because Google haven't announced it?

we will call it Fuchsia.
if anything GNUfags can call it Fuchsia/Margenta if they NEED to have stupid names.

10/10 rage filled reply.

Fuchsia is a microkernel
destined for doom + failure
nothing more than a research OS.
dead on arrival friends.

Prove yourself right.

Linux only has left servers and supercomputers and it wouldn't surprise me if something replaced it there too.

>>60335097
And tell me, why would that be good for you? What would you gain from it?

>>60335114
When did I say that it was a good thing, you fucking mongoloid?

Linux's future isn't looking very bright right now and that's a fact.

Google plus will BTFO of Facebook and Twitter.

prove me wrong.

It fits in with what Google have been doing recently. They've given up on tablets in favor of pushing Chromebook 2-in-1s which will all have the Play Store out of the box. Presumably they'll find a way to make Android apps work with Fuchsia and seamlessly phase Android out as Fuchsia is phased in. Then they will have a desktop/laptop OS and a mobile OS that are fully integrated, running all the same apps, and they'll have full control over exactly how both platforms work.

I wasn't sure where Google were going but now it's completely clear. If I were Microsoft or Apple I'd be shitting bricks right now.

No, the things you wrote down are really a subjective way of looking at the happenings here. Linux always had competition on all of the places it runs on, this is just yet another thing that might change stuff someday, nothing concrete.

>>60335061
Symbian has a microkernel too. I'm more concerned why the fuck they rewrite the Little Kernel in C++.

>implying currently can anything replace linux on embedded systems aside some old projects like qnx
Huge part of embedded development is about writing drivers and if you can't find developers for it, then it's doomed.

why can't they make an exokernel instead
fucking brainlets

>>60335139
The only thing that can kill GNU/Linux is another OS that's as feature complete and open.
If that happens, it probably won't really matter to the community we'll all switch over and the world will move on.

Seems more likely that Fuchsia will burn out and its good ideas will get turned into bits in the kernel or Linux userspace just like so many proof of concept projects before it.

I think you replied to the wrong person with that second one.
