From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Not many though, a few Samsung and then the pixel tablet as far as I know and they're still a bit more than $150 even used usually
I just ordered a tab a7 lite for myself for some casual use and I read in advance it could be owned with a variety of things to the best of my understanding. I’m hoping it won’t be too much trouble.
Lenovo Pad if you order the unlocked versions from Aliexpress. Search for Xiaoxin Pad, anyone offering a global ROM version has unlocked the bootloader.
But are there any actual FOSS ROMs on it?
I installed a GSI fork of LineageOS. Not sure if there are any device-specific ROMs for it, haven't checked in a while.
