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.

"Anyone can download the app, but free users will be given a 14-day trial to test drive it.'

So it's only for premium users ?

Hey it takes effort to make a WebView for mail.proton.com

They need to see how to package the dedicated browser for all the different distros and operating systems, make a nice icon and so ok. It takes hours
