So, are we going to get any European alternatives to android?

    I used postmarket os in past and I can recommend it… it has terminal for people who want to tinker with it but it can be used without terminal. Os is very easy to use and supports many devices, their support channels are hosted on matrix

      What hardware works probably for it to be a daily phone? Looks like none have the camera more than partly working and most have worse problems.

      Pissed me off phones aren’t just like PCs. They shouldn’t need Device Tree and custom ROMs. We should be able to install whatever OS we want and be confident it can work.

          Absolutely. Google aren’t going to demand discoverability for their platform. ARM aren’t going to put it in either. Both are happy for things to go obsolete and be replaced just because of software. So it falls to regulators when the market fails.
