they’re building an ecosystem, I assume it means something like apple’s ecosystem which is just a pretty prison. Huawei may implement it differently, but in genral it’s not a good sign when a company tries to do it. and things like not having an official method of unlocking the bootloader gives me the feeling that they’re not going to have an open ecosystem.
now don’t get me wrong, the fact that they’re trying to distance themselves from google is a good thing, but if it means another colsed environment where it’s in company’s interest to imprison end users, then it is terrible.
As far as I know HarmonyOS is based on AOSP, so I would actually expect the core technology to stay open. I’d like to see what they actually do with it before passing judgement.
