A phone with a non-existent app ecosystem is not a reasonable alternative for most people.

A phone with a non-existent app ecosystem is not a reasonable alternative for most people.
- fsflover 6y agoGNU/Linux has thousands of apps. They do not all fit the screen, but it's much easier to fix than create new ones. Purism created libhandy library for that.
- zozbot234 6y agoIt should be noted that the libhandy features are now part of the stock gtk3+ framework, so every app following standard UI guidelines benefits from the new "responsive" look.
- swiley 6y agoWhat are you talking about? GNU/Linux has a much more healthy app ecosystem than any mobile OS. I own one of these (the pinephone) and it's really very much like a laptop running alpine. All of my desktop apps just work (although I have to use fluxbox because CWM isn't nice on a touchscreen.)
