I can't say that this behavior surprises me. The author of this repo has blocked me from using GitHub's native fork functionality because I so much as suggested that I planned to fork Octotree due to the author retroactively makin

You can install Linux on every single Chromebook that has ever been produced (even the very first one). You are probably mistaking "managed" Chromebooks as a different line of Chromebook models.
