@Rhababerbarbar @danct12 Maemo was a regular Debian-based GNU/Linux distro, which Android is not.

@dos @Rhababerbarbar @danct12 Well, Maemo was Debian-based, but it was not quite usual. It contained lot of non-free stuff, for example. Still... more usual than Android, agreed.

@pavel @danct12 @Rhababerbarbar Sure, it wasn't even close to fully FLOSS and it had some creative partitioning and packaging hacks to fit things into NAND... but it was still a perfectly cromulent GNU/Linux distro. You can install plenty of proprietary crap on a Debian laptop as well:)
