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.

They recently released an android app
That good, huh? 😛
Not so bad but not compatible with all instances. What I noticed in the past, is campaigns against peertube to avoid people from using it, something quite strange (actually disgusting) but a sign that it's probably considered a "dangerous" platform for the established ones
IMO PeerTube would be much larger but grifter sites like Rumble and Odyssee/LBRY are sucking a lot of the wind from the YT-alternative ecosystem
Long term IMO PeerTube is the only sensible architecture. federated.
