    I’m so happy with my Jolla C2 - waiting for my J2 to arrive. Two steps back, but I’m loving it. Linux all the way baby! Thanks America hehe ;)

      The implication is there are only two options (iPhone or Android), this is the third option.* Obviously its not that black and white, with GrapheneOS, lineage, /e/, etc.

        just a bit of a correction: they are talking about os-es and currently on the smartphone market it is just ios and android (the alternatives are android too) and this is a linux distro

          It’s a Linux, but not fully open-source.

          PostmarketOS is the pure option, and needs our attention.

                Can’t remember, it was a few years ago. It was one of the earlier models, so probably something wrong with only those.
