Yup. Not counting my two PCs that both run Linux, I have:

  • LG Smart TV - webOS is Linux
  • Android phone and tablet
  • Chromecast - pretty sure it's Linux
  • Steam Deck - SteamOS is Linux

And that's just the ones I know about. I wouldn't be surprised if our cars, refrigerator, washing machine, etc all ran Linux inside. In fact, the only devices we have that I know don't run Linux (and have a real OS) are:

  • wife's iPhone
  • wife's iPad
  • wife's PC - Windows
  • my work computer - macOS
  • Switch - FreeBSD

But 4/5 of those are still *nix.
