      What the fuck is so special it doesn’t run on linux?

      Someone mentioned an OTP app, or password app - okay, but there’s many on linux, so that’d just be a preference for whatever it was. It would have to be something that isn’t browser-based. So - what’s so unforgivably irreplacable on android that people can’t live without?

      You’re in a thread about setting up a custom rom and you’re saying there’s something so unique, so proprietary that it can’t be experienced in a linux environment - fine. What is it? Microsoft Word? AutoCAD? phone versions, presumably? I dunno.

      I can’t think of anything, but you’re asking if I’m taking the piss because it’s incothievable anyone could be wondering what’s so irreplaceable about android. So - what’s the app you can’t live without?
