A comment on My Ubuntu for mobile devices post-mortem analysis. Parent comment
If I'd said "Linux-on-the-mobile", you could just as easily have said "Linux (kernel) is already on the mobile!".
If I'd said "GNU/Linux-on-the-mobile", you could have argued that Termux[1] adds GNU tools to your Android phone.
Half the things you'd expect on a "Linux" system (e.g. systemd, a Wayland compositor, X, DBUS, PulseAudio) are not associated with FSF/GNU at all.
Without nitpicking, when you say "Linux" most people think "Red Hat" (or Debian, Ubuntu, Arch, etc), not "Android".
