Linux is a bit different than people expect:

To me linux is everything under the hood. The File System, The Kernel, the Open Sourcing of the two, and everything built on top of that.

"I can't stand linux" only tells me that you need to log off from the internet because guess what most is run on.

Right, but my issue is directed at the people who use Android. It didn't start outselling iPhone because of techies like us alone - 'normal' people use it, 'normal' people who would otherwise never use 'linux' and probably don't realize they're already using it on their phone, and the key to that is they got rid of all* the parts about linux that cause headaches for average users.
