From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Enjoy the wrist-sized Linux ride!
Nah, it's not "too heavy" the linux kernel is running on all kinds of tiny processors.
My limited understanding is, that usually the problem is a lack of support and assistance from the hardware manufacturer to optimise the OS for their hardware.
This is why GrapheneOS and similar have poorer performance on phones et cetera.
Generally correct, but,
FWIW my gOS gets 40-50% more battery, likely due to lack of parasitic (see what I did there?) google services.
