webOS still had a chance when HP's CEO churn killed it. It's UI is still better than modern Android or iOS. All it needed was a single generation of decent hardware.
Moblin was merged with Nokia's Maemo into Meego. Meego was a resounding success on the one phone it shipped (Nokia N9 sold millions of devices in non-primary markets with zero advertising). We can thank Elop the Trojan CEO for that one.
Meego morphed into Tizen which Samsung promised not to change too much before proceeding to basically replace the entire UI stack with Bada. Tizen offers nothing but a rip-off Android experience and an SDK with a EULA that screws devs so bad that even MS or Apple wouldn't dream of having it (last time I checked, if you write something with the proprietary Tizen SDK, you hand all your rights to your code over to Samsung).
