Comment on A look back at 40 Years of GNU and the Free Software Foundation
float@feddit.de 1 year agoI’m really not sure if I would name any stock Android in that list. There’s not much “libre” about it. Compared to Apple, sure, but that’s a ridiculously low bar. We’re still missing good alternatives for mobile phones.

Unlike iOS you can get it as AOSP which is totally open source. Sure you need to add the blobs for the specific device etc but at least it’s a good base to work off if anyone wanted to make an Android based open source phone.
iOS could never do that.
Agree though they overall there is no “true” FLOSS mobile os and the KDE and gnome one’s still have a long way to go.
