  • 2 hours to update Series 3? Try 2 days.
    You can find the list of compatible watches all the way at the bottom of this page: apple.com/watchos/watchos-7 (it's right above the SDK section) Hope that helps clear up your confusion! Source: about 3 years ago

  • Ask HN: You ran into some money, what tech stuff are you buying?
    I would get something off the hardware compatibility list for Asteroid OS (Linux for smart watches). https://asteroidos.org/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago
  • Pixel watch ROM?
    It's not Android, sadly. If you want a FOSS smart watch, check out https://asteroidos.org/. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Linux hardware rocks!
    There is AsteroidOS and I think one more that I can't remember the name of. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Framework should make a smartwatch
    I would love a smartwatch with the philosophy of Framework. A consumer-friendly, high quality watch that works out of the box, and has privacy and repairability in mind. OS wise AsteroidOS looks like it has potential, but all its currently supported watches are kinda old. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Fitbit
    Asteroid OS though it seems like development has fallen off. Their page says they are still active. Source: over 1 year ago
