Android as we know it will die in the next two years and what it means for you →
While the headline of Antonio Rodriguez’ blog post is incendiary linkbait, he’s more thoughtful than the title suggests. The “fragmentation” danger for Android isn’t technological—it’s about inter-corporate warfare.
(Fragmentation has always been overstated, I’ve come to believe: the PC market has been “fragmented” for three decades. If Android ultimately fades, “developers couldn’t face not knowing what resolution their apps were going to be displayed at” is going to be pretty far down the list of reasons why.)
