What will Google call future chromebooks, androidbooks?
>>
You could already run Android apps on Chromebooks, along with Linux ones. This is mostly just swapping the components around. Google still has the remains of Fuchsia hanging around somewhere as well.
>>
enough about chromebooks, what about the mac mini huh? have you guys purchased yours yet?
I know I did

God i hate google so much. the UI, the look, the feel, the clunkiness. It is so fucking disgusting. It can never compete with iPad OS lmao. Just fucking YIKES.

I've been hearing for almost ten years that Android and ChromeOS are about to merge. I'm for it. Android interface when used as a tablet and ChromeOS interface when connected to a keyboard, that's the perfect tablet-laptop. Also, ChromeOS can run WINE just as well as any other Linux, while Android can't.
( As for iPads, fuck Apple for not merging iOS and MacOS only to force users to buy both a MacBook and an iPad, while the hardware is exactly the same. )

>while the hardware is exactly the same
but it is not. one is literally jsut a screen you touch on the other one is meant to be used with peripherals.
>>
>>103229052
>Fuchsia
Wasn't Fluchia supposed to be the unification of Android and ChromeBooks and replace both?
>>
Doesn't Android already have tablets to compete with the iPad?
>>
>>103228692
>Google is turning Chrome OS into Android
Wasn't it already?
>>
>>103229192
It is, very same SOC and everything else inside. Add a keyboard to an iPad and you have a MacBook. Take the keyboard off from a MacBook and give it a touchscreen and you have an iPad. Only the OS is different.
>>
>>103229200
It had years before the iPad came to be by the way. Reminder to zoomers that the iPad was not the first tablet, just the first popular one.
>>
>>103228692
The only change is the verbal is being shifted from Linux to Android
ChromeOS will still function the same
And if you use chromeOS, this shouldn't be a deal breaker
>>
>jeetdroid compete with ipados
"No"

Androiddev chads, we literally can't stop winning.

Compose multiplatform is gonna take over the fucking world

what will happen to Flutter then?

>>103228692
how will chrome os compete with the permission system of android and the lack of apps? Or the worse battery life?

android is much better than chromeos, i don't see why this is controversial.

>>103229486
Native crossplatform is inherently harder than fluttershit, so it's a perfect brainlet filter
>>
>>103229197
it's supposed to replace the GPL licensed Linux kernel in either of them. They've already gotten rid of most of GNU in Android.
>>
>>103228692
I remember years ago when I heard Google was creating an OS to compete with Windows that would be free I thought Microsoft was finished.

What went wrong with Chrome OS?
>>
>>103228692
If this means having a proper GrapheneOS laptop with a desktop first UI then I'm sold.
>>
>>103229174
>fuck Apple for not merging iOS and MacOS
This.
>>103229488
>i don't see why this is controversial.
It isn't.
>>103229885
>What went wrong with Chrome OS?
It is inefficient to develop two OSs that overlap,
>>
>>103229477
>permissions
Chrome's permissions are encompassing.

>apps
Progressive Web Apps.

>worse battery life
Generally the same screen on time.

>>103229174
ipados is abysmal, and like the forgotten middle child of apple.
making macos like ios has only ever made it worse.
>>
>>103230752
The merging of chrome os and android will improve iPad os or apple will face the consequences of mmynnstaying behind
>>
hopefully this means they'll have a proper docked interface for phones

this. the m4 ipad in particular. what a fucking waste

>>103228692
Meaning I can install it on any random ARM device? If not then it's useless. Just like chromeOS

Android never used any part of GNU to begin with.

This is the problem with retards calling the GNU operating system "Linux": it's confusing whenever there's a non-GNU OS that uses the Linux kernel or vice-versa.

>>103229580
Linux is not GNU or as I like to call it Linux=/=GNU

You laf, but Android 16 has a built-in Linux VM. iPad OS is a joke next to Amdroid.

This is very plausible and explains why Google is building not only a new version of Chrome for Android with extensions support but also a Terminal to run Linux apps on Android.
