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.

Jolla was a massive disappointment. As was the M$ buyout of Nokia.
What’s wrong with Jolla?
Failure to deliver their tablet in 2016, in a big way. They're trying to do a phone now, it's going better - but that's not saying that it's going well...
Ah, I see. That makes sense. I don't actually know that much about them, other than that the Commodore phone uses Sailfish.
