But what else do you need? Facebook App?
- chrisseaton 8y agoI would imagine most people hardly use phone calls or SMS. People need maps, a browser, WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Twitter, Instagram. They consider these absolute basics of a phone these days. Before you say 'all I use my phone for is phoning' well that's not what most people do by any stretch.
- adontz 8y agoI will say, why you need open phone if you install Facebook and WhatsApp into it?
- chrisseaton 8y agoWell you don't, do you. Not many people will need or be able to use an open phone.
- marcosdumay 8y agoJust because you have Facebook software running at it does not automatically mean Facebook can do anything with the phone. Getting Facebook sandboxed can be a great reason to get an open phone. It's certainly more reasonable than displaying video out.
- noobermin 8y agoWhy the need for purity? Firefox released an add-on to sandbox facebook tabs, you can easily make things better without having to turn yourself into a hermit.
- baroffoos 8y agoThe librem 5 is not a phone for most people. Its a phone for mini stallmans who want to still be contactable. I doubt anyone who spends $1000 on this phone with the specs of a $300 phone is planning to install Instagram on it. The core features people care about on this device is open source firmware, encrypted messaging, open source OS, replaceable parts, headphone jack, and sd card slot. This is the phone for the people who are not being represented by all the devices made for "most people"
