  • You also severely underestimate what children are capable of. I installed my first Linux distro, and taught myself HTML and CSS while still in primary school. I don’t think you have any idea what children can do. I could probably outclass most adults with technology when I was 16 or so.

    Um, I started using linux on my own when I was 9-10ish years old. I know perfectly what a child is capable of. But an average child will not do that.






  • I never said the objective was to learn Linux. The objective is to use it.

    Well you were replying to a comment of mine where the topic was teaching children linux.

    You can get terminal access on a smartphone.

    A child will never bother doing that.

    You can also run Linux apps on ChromeOS now. It leverages containers from my understanding, a technology baked into the modern Linux kernel.

    Yeah, I never said it couldn’t.

    No it’s not pedantic you are using a true scotsman fallacy.

    It’s not a true scotsman fallacy when neither chromeos nor android actively & openly advertise themselves as “Linux”. Yes, they are linux and that has been acknowledged, but not advertised.
