Hi, Thank you. Your comments provide valuable insight into challenges of porting Tizen OS. Could you please introduce one of the latest Galaxy smartphone (including S, A, or J series) on which Tizen was ported? Tizen has not officially been ported on any smartphone since 2017. Does it mean Tizen's community plans not to target smartphones anymore? Is it accurate deduction?
