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.

reminds me of Andromium. I thought that was a neat idea, but never tried it. The last time I played with gnome mobile on a pinephone, it seemed to be getting to a point where it could probably be used for something like this. It adjusted to whatever size screen it was running on. It also looked nice on the pinetab, but really need better hardware.
