Linux-based phone still ‘runs 99% of Android apps’ so you can do more with it, if you wish.

        Almost nothing works on it. Can make calls, but not receive, can open the camera, but not take a photo, etc.

          I have done all of those things without apps. Why the fuck would I want an airline and hotel app?

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.
