Do most people here actually use GNU/Linux OS on a computer AND a Custom (Non-OEM) OS on your phone? (Is it Neither, Only one applies, Or Both applies?) (piefed.ca)

Curious about the overlap. I wonder if its actually that much of what appears to be a consensus on Lemmy, or just a loud minority.

If I had to guess, the distribution on Lemmy is probably:

  • Uses Linux on at least one PC: majority (around 60%)
  • Uses Linux as their primary OS: large minority (around a third)
  • Uses a non-OEM OS on any phone: minority (around 10%)
  • Uses a non-OEM OS on primary phone: small minority (around 3%)

To answer for myself:

  • Primary PC: Arch, dual-boot with Windows 11, but I haven't booted that in ages
  • Secondary PC/tablet: Arch
  • Tertiary PC (desktop): Debian
  • Primary phone: LineageOS
  • Experimental phone: Nura (formerly PostmarketOS)
  • Ancient phone: a third-party build of old LineageOS (Android 9)
