Even if this is the case, what are you going to do? Buy a normal phone? That will just get you even more proprietary blobs.
You shouldn't let aversion to proprietary blobs put you off getting a PinePhone if all the other options you'd consider contain more proprietary blobs.

Not sure how successful they've been. I was hoping the situation would be better here. Proprietary Linux drivers suck. Even nvidia drivers have caused instability in my system before, switching to nouveau fixed it. I hate those things so much.
