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.

Ubuntu Touch can't use GTK? Why not?
what does Ubuntu touch have to do with this? I explicitly refered to the greater ax86 ecosystem.
You were responding to a comment talking about Ubuntu Touch. You then talking about "we" without any explaining of who you meant made me assume you meant Ubuntu Touch users.
ah my bad, I had thought I made it clear, I mean the greater android x86, Blisslabs projects like Bliss OS and waydroid, other projects like WSL2, tho that is dead... some chromeOS stuff too.
