What exactly is "in better shape" on Android? Why is there not a single file manager whose functionality even approaches that of say Caja or Dolphin, but which also doesn't have ads built-in? Why is multi-window some novel experimental afterthought when it's been done properly for DECADES now several times over?

I do wonder if just NOT making it a platform for spyware always running in the background (google services but also pretty much everything else, install Autostarts and see) would be more effecient...
>which would easily have 6-8+ hours of battery life on Android, yet it burns like fire in 2 hours with one gnu/linux-based mobile os.
Most reviews say quite the opposite, especially about screen off mode.
Android project back-ported countless battery optimizations to the kernel, so the less shitty battery life of your laptop is thanks to the project. (It still sucks thanks to all the other parts of the linux desktop stack not caring about it). Seriously, just have a look at the pinephone, which would easily have 6-8+ hours of battery life on Android, yet it burns like fire in 2 hours with one gnu/linux-based mobile os.
