Just because it’s a libre phone, doesn’t mean it’s necessarily a linux phone.

Likewise, a so-called "Linux phone" isn't necessarily a libre phone, either. But, I don't care about Linux, I care about freedom, so a LibrePhone is important regardless of what Linux fans think of it, and if it is truly worthy of the word libre, it will be able to run your so-called "real Linux."
