[PLUG] postmarketos experience?

[Tomas Kuchta]

Not related to you question and fresh dose of finest "whataboutism"!

To make my manners even worse, of course, I have no clue what is
postmarkedos!

With that out of the way ....

Isn't Nexus 7 suppose to be able to run the Ubuntu phone/tablet OS? I
occasionally stumble on recent update release notes on the interwebs.

Just a question, not a suggestion, I swear. I assume that you know :-)
