Really hoping for a phone with a Linux-based OS on it that doesn’t have outdated hardware by at least 4 years. Tricky because that’d be expensive to build for a small market share. Best hope is to flash Ubuntu Touch, or something similar, on an old Samsung, I think.

I’m not sure it’s a hardware problem per se… 🤔 The problem I have is even if there was a good Linux Smartphone of some kind, what would I do with it? The apps and UI/UX for them is umm well sucky at best 😂 The experience is rather terrible 😢 – What I really want is an iPhone running a variant of iOS that has all of Apple™’s iCloud and other “cloud” shit “code removed”. I just want a few essentials apps and maybe a browser. I honestly couldn’t care less about an “App Store” either, since you know… PWA(s) are a thing 😅

I agree with both of you @mutefall@twtxt.net and @screem@yarn.yarnpods.com – I’d like to see an ecosystem grow for Smartphones whereby consumers can choose to have a Smartphone with either Android, iOS or Linux. The later of course does exist, but it’s just not very good, it needs more people involved I think. – Maybe that’s what needs to happen. I mean this is how Linux on the Desktop happened right? 😅

@mutefall@twtxt.net Agreed 👌 (not that I’m a big gamer myself due to my vision impairment, but I like playing chess does that count?! 😅
