I see it more a case of going from a good developer experience with Maemo to a good but different one with MeeGo, and then to a shitty one with Tizen. It's hard to build excitement about a platform where you're forcing developers down a route that doesn't make sense. Seriously. I have no interest in developing for a platform like that. HTML5 gives much hope for the web. But a mobile device is not the web, and trying to pretend it is because it's buzzword compliant is a terrible decision. You had two chances, and got it nearly right on both of them. You got it very wrong with the third one, and I'm not going to waste my time on it.

Exactly my thoughts.
The whole HTML apps story looks _very_ unfinished/shitty and Intel is just a lying, not trustworthy evil megacorp that has a long long history of f''k''g with people. Add to that "carrier interests" for "controlled app stores" BS and you have biggest crap you can imagine. Compared to Intel and carriers Google is a pure saint of a company, although I don't like them. This platform is so utterly dead long before it started, devs who invest in it are probably insane or non existent (atm it seems to be 100% the latter)
