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.

The first question to answer is on what device, because the supported features vary.

(Pixel 3a) Still no 4g/5g support, haven't been able to make calls or send sms on t-mobile. Even switching to 2g/3g doesn't work for me. It shows a strong signal that drops out any time you try to make a call or send text.

I have 3 different devices that have it installed right now. One is completely unusable, one has basic support but half of the hardware is missing drivers, and one more is “fully” supported on the xenial branch. The focal one isn’t even going to be available on two of these.

When it comes to apps, there are basically none. This is not daily driver material, however with all the work being done to rebase the project onto newer versions of everything, it has a future
