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.

was wondering why there is so less attention on flutter in most linux mobil communities? i like the idea that people can work together on their favorite apps doesnt matter which os there are using. also its maybe a good chance to bring high quality software with bigger communities to linux mobile

I mean, simple mentioning Google will make some people just don't care about it. As I understand

Yeah, definitely. I'm one of those people. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Like, I tried to provide some rational explanation as to why people might have those reservations, but at the end of the day, it's my free time. I don't owe anyone a rational explanation why I prefer contributing to (/ writing) project X over project Y.
