diddledan | popey: does this kind of thing pee you off as much as it does me? (the repeated unsubstantiated claims that "our phones are abandoned") https://lists.launchpad.net/ubuntu-phone/msg23540.html | 12:09 |
diddledan | good read: http://www.washingtonpost.com/sf/style/2017/02/16/how-weird-al-eclipsed-almost-every-star-he-ever-parodied/ | 12:36 |
zmoylan-pi | how much of that is down to just outlasting them all? | 12:39 |
popey | diddledan: they have a point | 12:50 |
ali1234 | i was thinking the other day | 15:32 |
ali1234 | what if ubuntu edge got funded, and 2.5 years after delivery the OS was in the state it is now | 15:32 |
ali1234 | how much do you think people would be complaining then? | 15:33 |
ali1234 | at least the ubuntu phones that did get released were relatively inexpensive | 15:34 |
SuperMatt | an interesting thought | 16:04 |
SuperMatt | I think that maybe the boost of income from the edge may have pushed the development a little harder | 16:05 |
popey | Maybe. | 16:14 |
popey | Maybe that would have spurred us to hire more people | 16:15 |
popey | Maybe not. No way to tell. | 16:15 |
foobarry | i read that 99.6%of phones are androidios | 16:20 |
SuperMatt | they're android or ios, indeed | 16:20 |
SuperMatt | gonna be quite difficult breaking in to that market now | 16:20 |
directhex | if microsoft can't crack the smartphone market, i don't see canonical doing it | 17:07 |
ali1234 | to be fair microsoft are notoriously bad at entering new markets | 17:31 |
ali1234 | they'll try and fail for years, then apple does it first try | 17:31 |
ali1234 | or sometimes the second try | 17:31 |
zmoylan-pi | you have to hand it to microsoft though, if you don't they'll send someone around to sue you for it... :-P | 18:58 |
