We need to stop using android and iOS and move to pinephone and librem
- imladyboy 6y agoFeel free to
- mattl 6y agoI tried the last time with OpenMoko. Sadly, those things amount to little more than feature phones because they're just not powerful enough.
- morganvachon 6y agoI'm not a fan of Purism, the company behind the Librem phone, but it's fairly capable hardware for the price. The PinePhone is arguably even better hardware for the money, but it isn't quite ready for prime time on the software side. Gone are the days where a $300+ device is too weak or slow to use daily. A better tactic would be to purchase one of the few Android devices that are fully compatible with either Replicant or LineageOS, or a phone that can run Sailfish.
- mattl 6y agoAn iPhone SE is $400. I know Apple have a lot more R&D money than Purism, but it doesn't even feel comparable. I don't want to run Android. If anything I'd have two phones: an iPhone and a Pinephone.
- jayp1418 6y agoMakes sense or have nokia feature phone with kaios and pinephone
- mattl 6y agoI still want a smartphone.
- evolve2k 6y agoProject Insanity have been going to work at running Linux phone OS on the iPhone. Early days/long shot etc. but worth keeping an eye on. https://blog.project-insanity.org/2020/04/16/running-postmarketos-on-iphone-7/ https://blog.project-insanity.org/2020/04/16/running-postmar...
