chromebooks are incredibly accessible computers to so many people, and making real linux tools available through chromeos makes those tools’ reach that much greater. I got through a whole CS degree on a developer mode chromebook, and it’s pretty exciting to think of what this means for educational stuff for families who’ve gotten a chromebook for their kids’ remote schooling.

    I agree. I wish there was something like a Chromebook without the Google though.

    I actually learned web development on a Chromebook running Linux in a tab via Crouton

        I think nah, Linux in Chrome OS itself is just a container or VM inside the operating system.
