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.

It's pretty good TBH, I don't miss much from Android on this front in terms of functionality.
I'm using KDE's Angelfish (which is webkit-based), since I couldn't find anything firefox-based with a good mobile-friendly UI. It has adblocking, page translation and forced dark mode, which is enough for me to get by. There are also some neat features like PWA support (which I use for my public transit app), and I don't remember the other ones right now but they're there.
That I don't know. Maybe some of the paper cuts could be solved on other platforms, but AFAIK 3/4 main gripes (call audio, map app, battery life) are issues on every Linux phone.
Alright, thanks for the info, that's good to know. Trying to make the jump becomes more enticing every day.
