      Android called. They want their representation in your statistics. Android is Linux.

        No one’s doing this kind of work on their android phone, so you’re argument is pedantic at best in this context.

          If I can patch a ROM on my phone, you can patch your picture just fine. You don’t have to make it with your phone.

          Also, you’d be surprised at how excellent some drawing apps are on Android. Particularly Ibis.

          Meme aside, that’s a good question… I wonder how much GNU made it into Google’s implementation. Someone here probably knows.

            none. Android uses just the Linux kernel, not the GNU user space tools.

            That’s why Android is normally not counted as Linux, it’s basically a different OS using the Linux kernel.
