It was just difficult to get a FirefoxOS device back then. I had a friend pick one up for free at a trade show at a conference.
I personally want to try going down the KDE Plasma route myself. Device support is still problematic though.
- hawski 8y agoWhen I was thinking about buying my first smartphone I wanted a Firefox OS device. However devices were underpowered and the OS was too young and heavy on resources. So I bought the original Moto G. But still if there would be a Moto G of Firefox OS it probably would all end-up the same. But maybe it could at least retain a niche. My Moto G with current Lineage OS is better than when it was still getting updates, but sadly I broke SIM holder. Maybe I will try to fix it someday with someone's help. Now I use Nexus 5X and as it will soon receive its last update I'm thinking about alternatives. LineageOS is an obvious choice, maybe with MicroG. But I also am thinking a bit about Plasma Mobile as it is a supported device. If it will not bootloop maybe I will be able to try it. But I put my hopes in PostmarketOS and when there will be a single device with enough hardware support (I can close an eye on Bluetooth, NFC, accelerometer and gyro) I will buy two such devices even and maybe especially used.
