A free account on Adobe Acrobat online can sign PDFs, you don't need to have any kind of subscription. I'm not sure why the author felt they needed to subscribe if they were just signing PDFs. https://documentcloud.adob

I have both an N900 and a Pro1 and it's everything I wanted in a phone/device. I'm using self-compiled LineageOS on it right now and it is as "Linux-y" as I need and want, complete with a usable terminal and SSH app

This isn't quite true anymore. Snap software will still automatically update even if system updates are off. You have to either edit your hosts file to block the snap domain or disable the snapd.service in a command line to prevent the

I have been using the device with my own build of LineageOS 16.0. It's an Android-Linux OS but it has a custom Linux kernel where I have been customizing the keyboard driver. There are a few blobs in there but it's not too bad. Re

I'm currently using an Fxtec Pro1 [1], which has a respectable Snapdragon 835 and 6GB of ram. It was released last year with an older processor but compare the Geekbench scores to the "High end" new Pixel 5 [2]. It unofficial
