    To extrapolate…

    Phones are many and varied and while a manufacturer might assist google to ensure android is compatible they sure as shit aint helping any linux OS.

    There is no gargantuan megacorporation funding linux OS development, and there is practically no revenue for the few small companies that do. This means the existing implementations are, not very well polished.

    Because the UX is so terrible it’s just a non-starter for non-enthusiasts.

    Because there are no users there are no app developers.
