This is not true and it’s odd people still take this bait voluntarily. At best this line used to be cheap PR to avoid GPL and Linux disciples going ballistic and to keep media off the project as much as possible.

They’ve shipped Fuchsia on a real product now - the Nest Hub - they have Chrome working on Fuchsia, and an Android syscall interface in the works.

They removed this line from the site, possibly since it read as provocative, but for a few recent years they had updated Fuchsia.dev with “Fuchsia is not a science experiment”. Anyways, Google has a tendency to scrap projects as we all know but I don’t know if the recent trends point in that direction just yet, but it is possible - the project lead did leave recently and reportedly Meta were going to use Fuchsia for an AR/VR platform and switched to Android, likewise Google.
