I just have to assume you’re a troll at this point. That graphic is not helpful at all to anyone except those that care about the history of Linux. For everyone else it’s useless. I was making a joke about how one of the distros I use isn’t on there. I don’t know the history of my distro and honestly do not care. Any noob also would not care.
WebOS was made by Palm Inc., one of the earliest and quite successful manufacturer of ‘personal digital assistant’ devices, aka smartphones without the phone part (and later with that too). They originally developed and licensed their own OS, PalmOS, but needed an upgrade for multitasking and such. webOS was thus intended for those PDA devices, and Debian would of course be a ridiculous choice for the task.
I have warm memories of PalmOS: i was snappy as heck with the 16 MHz CPU, but that’s largely because of the ‘single-tasking’ and quite limited app functionality.
See, that’s not helpful. The right answer is to direct someone to this GitHub project:

The releases page contains a 3420x12488 PNG to provide a simple and concise answer.

I can see my OS from here!
Doesn’t even have CachyOS. Smh
If you know how to edit a comma-separated-value text file and how to submit a PR on GitHub, you could make the image larger.

i am not religious, but oh god…
“Simple and concise”
I always assumed webOS was Linux but I expected it to be a fork of Debian
