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.

i have an idol3 from 2016 and even that has all the phone capabilities (except the camera) and it's not listed as a community grade. you would be surprised at how many phones are working fully. and with sxmo/swmo every phone ever has a chance to be a daily driver.
i remember a time when the thing blocking linux migration was audio calling on msn messenger. it got solved but nobody cared. these things take time to go over the tipping point. hardly anybody used android when it first came out, symbian was all the hype.
if you are willing and have a spare phone you should try postmarketos now.
