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.

That was just one reason I gave. I personally do not like android, and my past experience with a pixel phone did not go well.
I want a phone that’s usable without having to worry about custom roms and Google locking down side loading of apps in the future. There was enough outrage that they gave up on their recent attempt, but we all know that’s not permanent.
My personal preference would be for a Linux phone that works and does so well. That doesn’t exist yet.
I also can't wait for a Linux phone, I'm tired of Google's involvement with Android. I also don't like Google and Samsung devices. The nice thing is that you can choose others.
