You are confusing few things here. You said that Linux (not Android) has huge downsides. I mentioned that Android does not have such huge technical issues and is technically doing just fine. Now you talk politics, not technicalities and these don’t have anything to do with Linux or its downsides. My point is that Android proves that Linux on mobile does not have huge downsides, at least from technical POV. Also there is AOSP that is not affected by politics. Until Google decides to make it closed source that is.

I honestly have no idea what you’re on about. I didn’t say literally anything about politics.

Google disabling sideloading is not a huge linux problem, but at something steaming from how Google handles it. But keep going on with how linux has huge downsides…

Why would anyone think that it was? Are you just doing the whole ignorant and annoying ACKCHUALLY “Android is Linux” thing?

I give up, linux has huge downsides but the linux os by the name android seemingly doesn’t but linux has huge downsides you can’t even list. OK, got it.
