      No? Not sure how you got that from what I posted lol.

      Google aren’t going to kill android. I never said that. What they’re going to do is make a new OS for their mobiles and devices and stop android development. As I pointed out, they’ve already begun this with fuchsia and by not adding 90% of their new OS features to AOSP. They don’t want their OS to be open source anymore, that was just how they would capture the market they wanted.

      The last few Android OS versions outside of pixels have just been essentially UI and security updates. Virtually no new features. Everything is pixel exclusive. This is their way of weaning off Android into their new closed source OS. They’ve already updated all of their Google home hubs to fuchsia.

          Is stopping Android development not killing it?

          No, because AOSP is open source. Samsung for example has been doing far more for android development than Google have.

          What would it take for you to consider Google to have killed android?

          Google can’t really kill Android because it’s open source and every OEM has their own fork of it.
