I'm intrigued to know this.
Does people lurking here actually use Linux itself on their phones, or simply Android as usual?

@unbloated kaios counts as Linux right?

@MBEverding @unbloated
short version: no

slightly longer: kaios is not based on android, it is based on firefoxos. but firefoxos is still heavily modified linux and does not give root access by default. kaios has uninstallable system apps, which could be google or manufacturer bloat.

Oh, okay! My bad! That makes sense, it's just like Android, so it doesn't really count as is.
Thank you for reminding us!
