I think you are probably right in a way... Remember how android started as a weird Linux kernel (supposedly, rumors ran around at the time)? But today android is a piece of shit that everyone is enslaved on, and Linux still rules. That's because you can't be a dumbass windows user and just become a Linux user overnight. Well I guess it takes like 5 minutes to install, but you might end up frustrated staring at a screen. There's lots to learn before you can get comfortable. Else android....or like me, Ubuntu. Sorry to Linux, but Ubuntu is where I gave up trying to recompile X for the 200th time.
I don't allow lunix in my house because it's an illegal hacker operation system. I can't believe an American hero like Elon would endorse something invented by the notorious Soviet computer hacker Linyos Torovoltos.
