That's some truly classy PR from Playton. I put up an X/Twitter poll about interest in the web3 blockchain handheld that's going to use their OS...their reply was...

Ah yes, my dedicated monopoly money wallet + handheld game console. It'll be a great compliment to my dedicated washing machine + toothpaste dispenser.

@gamingonlinux still haven’t heard a single use case where “web3” is actually better than the existing process or technique.

@gamingonlinux From The Verge article about this device:

@gamingonlinux I am not even a little bit shocked

If you know your Android history, the CEO of Playtron is the same guy who was CEO of CyanogenMod Inc (Cyngn), Kirt McMaster, and ran them into the ground. I should know, I worked there until I was fired illegally, sued, and won a settlement.

Guy made horrible business agreements, hired awful leadership, pivoted the company away from a truly brilliant idea after working in it for a long time, to focus on monetizing themes, etc.

Note that this was the CEO, not the creator and CTO, the eponymous Cyanogen.

@gamingonlinux I don't trust them to make the software correctly, if they ever do release it. Actually, I just don't trust them at all.
