Dead on arrival, such a monumental waste of effort on behalf of Canonical. All the while Unity gets more and more stagnant on the Desktop
>>
Because compared to Android, it only has cons
>>
>>54378127
No Xamarin support, so no good apps.
>>
If they put it on a device I can order from my carrier, I'll consider it
>>
Android minus everything nice about Android

Not good right now. Could be good in the future but probably not because Canonical.

>>54380383
Bait?

If they get convergence working on phones, it'd be awesome. Till then, meh

Hello mexico

Ubuntu's convergence is way better than the meme that is Windows Phone's Continuum. Sadly Canonical is a small company and it will never become mainstream. It's just gonna be a niche market, just like Linux itself is a niche for the PC enthusiasts.

Also there's this weird bug that when you launch an app for the first time, it takes an absurd long amount of time. They really should fix that ASAP.

Windows continuum depends on x86, but with Intel backing out of mobile chips, not sure what the status of that is.
>>
I'd really like one, but theyre gonna have to have the apps and carrier support to be more than a one off flop.
