Everyone have to avoid all the new OSes and make Android and iOS(if you want competition) better by using it. As we're using it, it means devs will bring all games and apps to your platform of choice.

Now with iOS and Android and may be Windows Phones, we already have a reasonable competitors here. Adding more to it and it'll become fragmentation.

Samsung(a company wich I don't quite like) is retiring Bada because now is focusing on Tizen(with Intel that Nokia kicked off and abandoned Meego) and BADA apps will be compatible on Tizen. Nokia retired Symbian and Symbian Apps(pressuming they are any quality ones over there) are backward compatible with nothing because Nokia is not working on anything instead because they have all the eggs in one WP basket. :)

I hope Tizen adopt something like the two step verification system which will be on most websites in the future.

Bad decision when there's better alternative like Ubuntu which is native linux that's fully open sourced and will be supported by many companies.
