Android is Linux. Linux is the most popular OS in the world.
Linux works well but sadly most people don’t use Linux

I was specifically referring to desktop Linux, most people wouldn’t be interested in a laptop running android.

Yet Chromebooks have been a major element for the past 5 years, with more units sold than Apple. I know it’s not technically GNU/Linux. But there’s still a Linux core underneath required to run them.

ChromeOS is popular because it’s included in cheap laptops and the operating system is practically idiot proof (at the cost of being able to do practically nothing)

Most people use Linux, just not desktop. If people are okay with Android, they’d be okay with Gnome as well.

If they sell snapdragon laptops with Linux preinstalled people would buy, sadly they’re more likely to include Windows (which has bad support).
