"Amazon's Fire TV to Drop Android in Favor of New Operating System"

Amazon has confirmed its plans to transition Fire TV from the Android-based Fire OS to a new platform called "VegaOS" through a deleted job listing that explicitly mentioned the shift to "native/Rust" and React Native.

This move follows reports from last year indicating that Amazon would be dropping Android for its own OS across all new devices, and it's still unclear when the transition will take place.
