The self sufficiency of China software industry had produced a mobile Harmony operating system and WeChat app that Western European Diaspora now desperately attempted to steal…
Let us not get too carried away. I have staunchly supported Huawei since 2016, when I bought Honor 6X as a risk. HarmonyOS is the most confusing thing I have seen, because it is 1) an Android/AOSP fork, just like LineageOS and such custom ROMs, and 2) it is an ecosystem of devices, services and a microkernel in the way Apple has.
China’s self sufficiency comes from the ecosystem of WeChat, Alibaba, Tencent, Baidu, Bilibili, Weibo, Ixigua et al. Also simply having relatively countless IT manpower compared to other countries (except India, because similar numbers) is what allows sustainance of this ecosystem.
Huawei is quite dead (which is why global smartphone industry outside China lacks innovation), and the chip industry needs to become a thing to allow true self sufficiency. Hardware and software are like yin and yang.
