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.

My OnePlus 12 has that option, too. It can be rooted just as easily.
Awesome! How do you like the OnePlus phones?
I love everything about them except two things:
The aspect ratio. It's too damn narrow and it makes the phone look like a tv remote. They need to go a bit wider like Samsung. They do this stupid 20:9 aspect ratio. Watching YouTube sucks on it, too. Half of the video is just black bars because of the aspect ratio.
There nonstop chase after apple. They literally copy apple letter for letter in their phones' hardware and software and it's fucking disgusting. They are even now talking about removing the sound modes slider and replacing it with a button just like on the iPhone. They're drooling over apple all the time and it's pathetic. If I wanted an iPhone I'll just get one. There is a reason why I went android.
Oh yeah , those are both super annoying.
