Linux on Desktop is fine, because it's had a long time to mature and improve.
The problem is that Linux mobile software is very immature, so it isn't ready for a general audience yet.
Android is Linux
And why do we need waydroid in order to install android apk on postmarkedOS?
Android does use the Linux kernel, they're right, but the userspace is completely different and what I was referring to.
I was referring to standard GNU/Linux or Busybox/Linux, not the heavily modified Android.
