From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Flare? It's hardly complete. Can't even use it as a primary device.
As for the desktop app, it's not exactly mobile oriented.
Ah, ok
Not being mobile oriented is a very valid point.
Thought, that it maybe still is enough to work with, but yeah, I can imagine that it's not really nice handle on mobile - and probably no notification support etc
Also the "desktop" web app requires to be paired with an instance of the mobile app.
I wished moxie would spend a little less time flying helicopters and trekking in Tajikistan, and reflect on the need to support non proprietary platforms.
Ah, yeah right
Completely forgot about that
