Can WordPress and Tumblr compete with Facebook?

Is Huawei's HarmonyOS an Android replacement?

It is not. It is a good start on an android replacement. To replace Android you would need all the app developers to join as well.

It's stressing people out. It needs an overhaul. It needs bigger changes than what the company is doing right now.
