    So Google have at last seen sense and are pushing security updates to all Android 10 phones via the Play Store. I'm just wondering if it's for 3 years like with Android one phones, or whether Google are mofing to more of a Windows 10 style of support with ongoing security updates and yearly or half yearly 'feature updates'.
    It could be part of a 'green initiative' to reduce plastic , along with a reappearance of replaceable batteries..
     
    whether Google are mofing to more of a Windows 10 style of support with ongoing security updates and yearly or half yearly 'feature updates'.
    Considering everything Google does, from its own servers, to its cloud, to its laptops, to its mobile OS, is Linux, if they move toward anyone's style of support it won't be window$!

    Most Linux distributions, such as the most famous one, Ubuntu, have long been on twice-yearly version upgrades plus continual security and other updates. That's who I'd expect Google to follow.
