We know MacOS is Unix. We know Linux server runs most of the internet. We know Android is Linux. Thanks for your input.

We were obviously talking about the classic Linux Desktop distros, and based on the whole conversation you should know that. If ChromeOS and Android were categorized as Linux distros, then nobody would hate/love Linux Desktop per se.

We're obviously talking about Linux, not "Unix", and based on the whole conversation you should know that. Thanks for your input.

> If ChromeOS and Android

One is traditionally used on a laptop/desktop, one on a phone, not sure why you're conflating the two.

And the point is, if you are "just using a web browser", desktop linux has done this for decades. And Chrome OS is definitely a desktop linux distro, why do you not consider it to be one?
