The very constrained environment sucks. Limited kernel with sparse modules, probably no root access (and Google's infernal Play Protect/SafetyNet will try to make sure you can't run certain apps if you do have root), lots of additional security layers... Android is antagonistic to userlands; it's no fun. It'll be interesting to see how much of the Chrome OS work Android steals. ChromeOS also has an immensely locked down world, but they have build all kinds of secure/virtualizing proxies to let container OSes feel like they have access to hardware. Immense NIH is both daunting but also kinda cool, see https://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/developer-library/guide... |
