Questions for linux phone enthusiasts:

  1. What's to stop Instagram etc creating apps for mobile linux? (In principle I mean, obviously there's no market yet)
  2. Is it possible to set up phones with users, so (in principle) you could have a child as a user who can't install anything without the root password?

Thanks ahead of time (this is for my forthcoming blog post on the benefits of linux mobile for young people)

@davidoclubb little to no market and web browser exists on all platforms.

Having a limited account can indeed prevent app installation but not running apps directly via the command line if they get the executable.

You can setup profile on some distro with allowed apps list etc.
