In the Android tinkering circle, there is a laughable phenomenon: no matter what Root solution, someone always opens their mouth and says "Mask".
Magisk is "Mask", KernelSU is "KSU Mask", APatch is "AP Mask", and when it comes to FolkPatch, some people even call it "FP Mask".
Excuse me, is "Mask" the only word in your world?
Why Can't You Call It Randomly?
"Mask" is the Chinese translation of Magisk (Mask -> 面具), which specifically refers to the Magisk software.
Calling all Root solutions "Mask" is like:
- Calling all smartphones iPhone.
- Calling all computer systems Windows.
- Calling all cars Tesla.
This not only appears extremely unprofessional but is also misleading to others.
Correct Abbreviation for FolkPatch
