I'm going to see what I can do to get my hands on HarmonyOS Next device. Huawei seems to be putting them on sale in Europe, so maybe I can set up a fundraiser if there's interest.

First mobile OS that isn't iOS or Android with a real shot.

there's some community port for the OnePlus 6 based on upstream linux someone found on gitee, maybe some prebuilts have been published?

@cas The new version is a completely custom operating system, without even Android compatibility. New kernel, new programming language, etc.

They're finally launching it now.

@cas @thomholwerda For OnePlus 6, you can have Droidian (android kernel) or Mobian (mainline). (Only) major missing piece in mainline is camera.
