A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I'm dubious Android even serves as a base for Kobo's OS. I've seen no evidence to support that claim.

EDIT: if you are referring to Tolinos, they are not simple rebrands of Kobos.

No, I forget where exactly it was, but at some point last year I was deep in Rakuten's documentation and it referenced that the Clara HD's OS is based on a modified Android 8 kernel.
