gnu/linux is ironically a fair point in this context. But to uhm ackshually you, chromeos is technically based on chromiumos which is technically based on the linux kernel.
Fair but Ubuntu Touch is not mainline Linux. It’s a hack to get a GNU/systemd Userland working with an Android kernel (which arguably is also a huge feat)
Android is Linux.
Modified Linux kernel, but you very well know what people mean don’t you
Every distro has a modified Linux kernel, Android is no different.
Android is the first thing I think of when I hear Linux phone
chromeos is the first thing i think of when i hear linux workstation
Well um actually a Linux workstation would be GNU/Linux and chromeos is only the Linux kernel. /s

I think when people say “Linux phone” they mean GNU/Linux.
No. Most people mean PostmarketOS, which is Busybox/musl/Linux
No? PMOS isn’t the only thing people refer to by “Linux phone”, often its something like Ubuntu touch, which absolutely is GNU.

Ah, you probably right, I think it’s more common.
I personally run ArchLinux on my PinePhone.
A lot of people use Manjaro and Mobian (mobile Debian).
