Questions for linux phone enthusiasts:
1. What's to stop Instagram etc creating apps for mobile linux? (In principle I mean, obviously there's no market yet)
2. Is it possible to set up phones with users, so (in principle) you could have a child as a user who can't install anything without the root password?
Thanks ahead of time (this is for my forthcoming blog post on the benefits of linux mobile for young people)

1) nothing. No market and maybe not enough access to track and harvest data from the phone. Instagram collects data on photos, contacts and more
2) yes it is possible, though i do not know how to configure it. The GNOME and KDE software centers for example support that. I guess it is because of an underlying setting in the OS.
@chfkch yes I wasn't sure whether data harvesting would be possible on Linux. Presumably users can just decline...? I am out of my depth
