both Linux operating systems have 1. A friendly user interface, 2. A hidden terminal, and 3. A locked down root user, to avoid dangerous actions!! Why do people seem to dislike Android when Ubuntu is similar to it??

    Android isn’t locked down, because you can download things from the internet, get new apps, even if you can’t access the Google Play Store!! and you can run the terminal.

      If you, as the owner, don’t have root, it’s extremely locked down.

      There are a few you can get root, but they’re the exception, not the rule, and having to jump through hoops for it is still a locked down OS.

      Here’s a task for you: Create a new file called “Unlimited_POWER” in /

      Do that both on Android and Ubuntu using the built in or preinstalled terminal, and no external devices. No new software installation. Just this task on a fresh install.
