minus-squareShatur@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·1 year agoI think when people say “Linux phone” they mean GNU/Linux.
minus-squareTheyCallMeHacked@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoNo. Most people mean PostmarketOS, which is Busybox/musl/Linux
minus-squareAdanisi@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoNo? PMOS isn’t the only thing people refer to by “Linux phone”, often its something like Ubuntu touch, which absolutely is GNU.
minus-squareTheyCallMeHacked@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoFair but Ubuntu Touch is not mainline Linux. It’s a hack to get a GNU/systemd Userland working with an Android kernel (which arguably is also a huge feat)
