O Artigo 65.º da Constituição da República Portuguesa é largamente ignorado mas (ainda) existe.

Who would've thought defunding would lead to this...

Meanwhile the US surveillance state does it as a full-time job.

Not an actual lock-in as they (still) provide tools to cross-compile and the source is (still) available, more like a vendor push-out if you insist.

I can imagine that theirs is safer and more suited for targeted devices. Linux is extremely generalistic and has a ton of cruft.

For targeted devices so is Gentoo. Their edge is having access to proprietary drivers.

But I have never looked at their code or tried to port a Linux app to Android. The #Krita devs might have some insight here.

If it's written in portable C you can use the Android NDK/SDK to cross-compile it for the 4 archs they support. I do it at work.

glibc is key here, it's what most linux distros use. One of Google's vendor-lock moves was to start using their own libc implementation, making it incompatible with everything else.

The only thing linux about android is the kernel, i wouldn't call that a linux distro and it's not even compatible with any others.

XFCE for the aforementioned reasons and not depending on gnome. Xmonad otherwise.

Oh yeah, the foundation for docker and vagrant.

I read pagers for a sec and was confused... then again, god is the biggest mass murderer of all time.

You mean turtles don't hold the world?

You mean farts i the general direction. FTFY.
