2019-01-05 12:03:30 UTC  

Apparently HMD purchased the right to use the Asha brand in mid 2018

2019-01-05 12:03:38 UTC  

So maybe we'll see something this year

2019-01-05 12:23:02 UTC

2019-01-05 15:11:25 UTC  

probably comes preinstalled with apps telling you which streets are designated

Reminder that this channel is troll free. Put your "poo" comments in <#189467888657235970> and stop disrupting nice technical conversations

2019-01-05 15:21:20 UTC  

Btt, @androidcrawler kaios is made in Cali and it's a b2g fork

2019-01-05 15:22:15 UTC  

I doubt it will be maintainable for a long time without having hundreds of developers. b2g is largely deprecated technology

2019-01-05 15:22:36 UTC  

But then Google put millions into that OS so they probably won't just let it die

2019-01-05 15:22:46 UTC  

And big players like Facebook are supporting it, too

2019-01-05 15:23:13 UTC  

WhatsApp is a nazi when it comes to maintaining platforms and they jumped on the KaiOS wagon right away, so...

2019-01-05 15:23:45 UTC  

There are enough big players behind it and a few things that went wrong in both iOS and Android, are being done better here

2019-01-05 15:24:00 UTC  

For example, not everyone can just publish their apps. Apps are handpicked

2019-01-05 15:26:14 UTC  

aka only CABAL aproved apps to their store

2019-01-05 15:26:15 UTC  

:P

2019-01-05 15:26:22 UTC  

pay for app store

2019-01-05 15:26:50 UTC  

Handpicked by whom? Tbh it's pretty easy to call poo bias here

2019-01-05 15:26:52 UTC  

No, they have transparent requirements for every app. Those requirements are about UX, stability and compatibility

2019-01-05 15:27:12 UTC  

so no code checking ? just the surface

2019-01-05 15:27:30 UTC  

That's the fun part because it's based on b2g

2019-01-05 15:27:43 UTC  

You have no way to run an app without having the source

2019-01-05 15:28:18 UTC  

Also your app may not be just an iframe and everything is on your server, which is nice, too

2019-01-05 15:28:59 UTC  

Once I get my Nokia 8110 I'll make a simple 2D game for kaios and I'll report back on how they behaved when I wanted to publish it

2019-01-05 15:29:32 UTC  

I got a 8110 for 45 CHF to toy around with the platform

2019-01-05 15:34:05 UTC  

porc can you build a discord client for it

2019-01-05 15:34:07 UTC  

thx

2019-01-05 15:34:10 UTC  

```
The KaiStore team reserves the right to reject your app under the following circumstances: [...] Your app does not meet our quality threshold in areas such as 'Basic function', 'Interaction', 'Stability', as well as 'Compatibility'.```

2019-01-05 15:34:11 UTC  

how is kai os more popular than ios

2019-01-05 15:34:30 UTC  

it's not allowed @Droidbot, Discord doesn't allow you to use inofficial clients and you will be purged from discord

2019-01-05 15:34:42 UTC  

you would need to create a bot user and post as a bot
