    Impressive hardware specs but I’d rather a Pixel tablet with GrapheneOS

    I don’t trust their (Lenovo) software

    Uh, nice. What about Linux support? Didn’t they try to get that platform supported in mainline Linux?

        Well, technically, it shares the basis of the kernel. But I like my desktop environment, package manager, programming environment, the desktop version of Firefox and LibreOffice, having a distribution that is not aligned with Google’s corporate interests…

        (Edit: And with Android I have to jump through a lot of hoops to maybe achieve a few things from my list. Plus you tend to get locked in to whatever crapware a manufacturer installs and their update poilcy, unless it’s supported by other projects as well. And Linux software generally doesn’t refuse to start after 5 years or so.)

        Technically but still very different. And Android devices usually come with locked bootloaders. And the drivers are different.
