So, I’m a Finn, and have heard many times that we prefer Android because it’s “built on a Linux kernel” (I know just enough to know the Linux dude is a Finn). But *what* is “a kernel” and how “Finnish” does this make Android? Can Linus Torvalds be credited in any way for Android?
In: Technology
iPhone and Android has pretty similar market share in Finland as it does elsewhere. Most people don’t know or care one bit that Android has Linux at its core. And while Linux was started by Linus Torvalds back in 1991, it’s very much an international project these days, and Torvalds is an US citizen.
