What’s the best tablet to install Linux on? I am looking for something affordable (under $200) and light just to use a PDF reader with MEGA sync.

You can replace Android with PostmarketOS on some Samsung Galaxy tablets

Those are very old models, btw. For the better or worse… At least they should be cheap and practically everything will do for a PDF reader. I’d just check if the display is still acceptable by today’s standards before buying something. I know some of the low-end tablets come with sub-par displays to cut down on costs.

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.
