    This seems like a bad plan. While Fire OS has always been an outdated mess of AOSP, it still supports large pool of apps with sideloading. This is also probably expensive to build and they continue losing large amounts with their Alexa stuff. I wish for a third option besides just Android and IOS ,but I’m not holding my breath for this being it.

      Microsoft gave up far too easily. We should have a Windows phone.

      But the better alternate to iOS did not win. Google had the funds to push Android forward, where WebOS did not.
