Linux as an OS is generally meant as Desktop Linux, and it most definitely is in this context that is about desktop marketshare, Desktop Linux is mostly following freedesktop guidelines, which has traditionally helped standards on Linux a lot to streamline developments. So for instance XFCE/Gnome/KDE desktop apps can be run in all the different desktop environments. For instance also standardizing things like how tray icons work. Freedesktop is part of X.Org Foundation, and Chrome OS does not use X.org or Free Desktop standards at all. The newer Wayland to replace X is also an X.org standard. So while Chrome OS is based on the Linux kernel, it is NOT a Linux OS in the original sense, a term that became popular decades before Chrome OS or Android became a thing. If you include Chrome OS you might as well include Android too. As it can run on for instance Raspberry Pi and other mini systems, and could be used as a desktop system. Chrome OS is a Linux kernel based OS, and not much more than that. It's somewhat confusing in some situations that Linux as a desktop OS doesn't have a unique name, but it wasn't a problem originally, as what some prefer to call GNU/Linux was made 100% for desktop use originally. The Linux kernel is way way more widespread and successful than what we usually term Desktop Linux or GNU/Linux. TLDR: Linux OS, Desktop Linux, GNU/Linux are generally meant as the same thing. Chrome OS and Android do not belong in that category. They are Linux based as in the Linux kernel only, but do not follow the standards of Desktop Linux.

European authoritarians and their enablers in the media are misrepresenting GrapheneOS and even Pixel phones as if they're something for criminals. Spanish authorities*. Not really European-wide thing, but a local one.

God damn I love it I've been messing with Linux for 20 years now and there are some patterns that never seem to change. In almost every thread about Linux there will always be: 1 person bragging about 'Using Arch" btw 1 or 2 people saying this will be "The Year of the Linux Desktop" 2 or 3 people joking about it being "The Year of the Linux Desktop" 10 - 15 people explaining why it wont be or shouldn't ever be "The Year of the Linux Desktop" 3 or 4 people complaining about how rude the Linux community is. 10-20 people saying that isn't their experience and/or they always try to help people when they can. 1 or 2 people actually being rude (who are usually downvoted). 2 or 3 people saying how Windows/Mac OS is better in certain ways. 4 or 5 people complaining about one specific thing that doesn't quite work for them in Linux, or one specific Windows only program they must use for work. 8- 10 people giving them suggestions about how to solve their issue or work around it. Personally I love the Linux community. The people are mostly great, friendly, able to think outside the box, and willing to help others. I try to emulate that whenever possible. Sure you are going to get rude people in every scene, I just ignore them.

OK, it just has utterly degenerate webpage design. I thought those were voluntary additions by users telling what they use, not common format. Inconvenient.

Yeah, thought so. But there was a slight hope you could replicate the parameters behavior.

That depends entirely on your usecase.
