- jlokier 3y agoTrue. We call it 'Android' now, or 'ChromeOS'. Some argue we should acknowledge the important historical contribution made by the Linux project to the most widely used operating system in the world, but others argue that Linux is only a small component in a larger system, especially when they count lines of code, so it does not merit mention. /s (Above is a paraphrase of the now old argument why GNU did or did not merit mention in names of Linux-based operating systems. Now we have reached the point where Linux doesn't get a mention either).
