So the value is that, Naru is not android. Which matters when Google is incrementally releasing less and less of AOSP. But even then, you can still run Android inside Naru (and other Mobile Linux options) via Waydroid. permalink fedilink source parent [–] TheMightyCat@ani.social 9 points 9 hours ago Why is there no value in mobile linux on a modern phone? Atleast for me the value for Nura (which im glad is why they dropped the old name) is that its mainline linux, not that the orginal vendor doesn't support it anymore. permalink fedilink source parent [–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 7 points 9 hours ago How dare they support a new phone!
