From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Phosh has come a long way under the development that pinephone and librem phones sparked. But so has Plasma Mobile. I don't think either of them are great for larger formats yet, they are built more for the phone format. But they are both leaps and bounds ahead of even a few years ago.

as much as I like plasma mobile and want it to succeed it's pretty janky in its current state imo
