Anyone use one of those Linux phones like pine phone or librem.

I was looking at a few months ago but settled on a deggooled phone. Are there user friendly distros for them?

    I am well aware, but the PPP included some expensive “premium” features like licensed gorrilla glas and so on, which do nothing for the developer experience

    It’s great when developers daily drive what they write since it’s a community project and there is no quality control. I personally was happy when PPP was announced and bought it because I couldn’t daily drive PP, the hardware is too outdated for me. I honestly would prefer even RK3566, its more powerful and less hungry. But users can still can buy PP.

    Compared to the original PinePhone the developer uptake of the PPP has been really slow

    PP is around since 2020. And it was in a similar state. Also initial GNU/Linux support were different. Especially camera.

    And I also made a mistake in my first comment. I wanted to write that all issues are software issues. I’m so sorry.
