    It’s close enough to linux to be linux-like and can always be more linux-y, but it’ll never be unix.
    Still ‘adequate’ and light years better than the others.

    It’s definitely Linux, but it’s not GNU.

      “android” is the version of the Linux kernel it’s using. It’s still the Linux kernel.

      Here’s one of Arch showing the “arch” version of the kernel:
