      Linux isn’t an OS.

      Pedantically true, but practically irrelevant statement.

      What do you mean ? There is ubuntu touch working in some phone.

      I saw that there is some improvements, for the fair phone 5 it seems that it is working but no dual Sim possible and LTE phone calls. You can check it out for your model on this site : https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/

        Enzy’s point is that Linux isn’t an OS but just the kernel, so the core part of the OS. That point is technically correct but practically utter bullshit. It’s generally only pushed by pedants who have nothing better to do, because all the grown-ups in the room easily understand what’s meant when someone refers to an OS called Linux (namely, Linux distributions, which contain a whole OS running on a provided Linux kernel).
