Can anyone tell me whether #Kaios #featurephone support #CardDav and #CalDav?
They are two "killer feature" that make me leave #Nokia #SymbianOS years ago.

@ajsadauskas @JessTheUnstill also #BlackBerry's #PlayBook #Tablet was released as a accessory screen for their Phones, which gave it "#WiiU-Effect" in terms of marketing.

  • Plus #RIM relying hard on business clients and their proprietary applianced mail systems and having big carriers upsell to business people made them look outdated & quite literally out of touch once #iPhone went mainstream.

I mean, the hardware was never their problem and #SMS-Typists swear by their #BlackberryCurve's #keyboard but BlackBerry's #toolchain - just like #SymbianOS's - was just hideous to the point that devs like @fuchsiii didn't even want to try making #Apps for those devices.

  • Unlike #Mozilla fucking up #FirefoxOS by refusing to sell devices to #developers, by the time RIM & #Nokia came from their high horses, their market shares had been squeezed into mere "rounding errors" by #iOS and #Android as it was way cheaper and easier to get #Apps developed, tested, sold, bought and use them than on their devices.

#Sony even released some #Symbian #S60 devices but since they didn't have the same signing keys, one couldn't even #sideload apps (not to mention they didn't had the #OviStore on those either!)...

A concept is tolerated inside the microkernel only if moving it outside the kernel, i.e., permitting competing implementations, would prevent the implementation of the system's required functionality
OKL4 μKernel 3.0, released in October 2008, was the last open-source version of OKL4 μKernel. More recent versions are closed source and based on a rewrite to support a native #hypervisor variant named the OKL4 Microvisor. OK Labs also distributed a paravirtualized #Linux named OK:Linux, a descendant of Wombat, and paravirtualized versions of #SymbianOS and #Android
Osker, an OS written in Haskell, targeted the L4 specification; although this project focused mainly on the use of a functional programming language for OS development, not on microkernel research.[

RedoxOS is a Rust based operating system, that is also inspired by seL4, and uses a micro kernel design.

Let's make a simple Symbian app! 📱 Symbian OS ruled smartphones in the early 2000s—if you had a Sony Ericsson or Nokia, you probably used it. But by the decade's end, iOS and Android took over. Why do you think Symbian couldn't keep up? 🤔

@katebevan No doubt most of the old #WindowsPhone will join us. And #PalmOS, #SymbianOS, etc.
