I'm still waiting for the OS that will have the courage to truly innovate.

I had high hopes for webOS and Windows Phone, but they're both dead. I'm now waiting for Fuchsia.

I expect to be disappointed. Maybe I'll need to show them?

But Fuschia is a kernel and as far as I can tell, Google’s in-place Linux-replacement for Android so that they can finally “escape” the GPL and do a full lockdown.

Fuschia won’t bring you any interesting new, user-facing features.

There was a UI for Fuchsia called Armadillo, but they got rid of it. It looks like they're working on 3 new UIs:
