Weird...
The Linux community consoling themselves with how Linux can be found in offbeat, odd, and downright weird places. Heck, when you can’t seem to win on the desktop, find a way to highlight how it’s used elsewhere. where people won’t have noticed it. Meanwhile, Linux is still a loser on the PC front, where people do get to make their choice about what OS will run their devices. Android is the ‘most used’ OS for smartphones, but then, people weren’t made aware that it’s derived from Linux, and if Windows Phone OS had been available from the beginning, it’s doubtful that people would have chosen Android. Sometimes, you have to get lucky, and Google/Android was lucky that there wasn’t any competition, other than the more expensive iPhone devices. That could still change, and Android can be replaced, but it will take time. Usually, the best finds a way to compete and overtake, and Android is not the best OS out there.
