I would recommend it. Very worth it overall (As a user of a similar Pixel phone)

What are your use cases?

That will definitely be the focus. If Europe people can mandate making Android and Apple Ecosystems be opened to having real GNU/Linux or anything else they want to be able to be put on it then that would make huge changes to getting that to happen

Very true. Covered that in my post on Europe

What is the bottleneck holding Fairphone back from supporting Linux fully?

I wonder why they don’t want to, its not really in Fairphones to not do that

That too! I covered that in another of my recent posts on the Europe community on here

That is a big thing Europe can at least make happen and in Asian/African/Latin countries too.

I like your addition though that is all facts!! Let’s keep pushing countries to make that happen.

To make them undo what Google is trying to do currently and what Apple does for long time to have all those devices be fully changeable for the OS

Needs to become a movement everywhere!!! Just as StooKillingGames, and the KeepAndroidOpen movements

We need a catchy name for it

Sure would be the toppiest of tops!

We can encourage them to work together in their official communication channels too!

Would be good for both of them on every level. GrapheneOS learning to make their own phones, and Fairphone learning to make an OS while both being partnered

Edit: Be the change you want to see everybody!! Flood the gates with what we want!

That’s true but you never know maybe in future they will. Definitely don’t see them doing it now. It would definitely be a hop on the wagon moment for them

Let’s push for it to happen!! Collectively we make it happen! Also, for more companies to jump on board. Imagine Samsung jumping on board to make a Linux phone!

Can you write a guide on how to so others can learn how to (I would like to know how to compile an OS)

Europeans should really push for that in EU. Then other countries and unions of countries can do the same

The more alternative companies/organizations/groups that do not do these garbage practices the better. Private non-stock unionized companies. Best if open-source hardware but that part would have to be community done

We really need more alternative private non-stock unionized companies in USA made to go against Big Tech

That’s really what it comes down to. Better alternatives across the board

Help others switch then the problem is fully solved

I really want to see more GNI/Linux and Tux GIF’s/Images made to see out in the wild like this

If you made this you are a goat!

Everyone keep helping more people switch to Linux and help them be part of in-person/online groups. To discuss Linux, and get help where needed.

That and thinking that they won’t be sued to oblivion for this. People are looking for ways to do lawsuits and this is a big one

We must all keep pushing people to go against this and to build up Linux mobile alternatives: PostmarketOS, Ubuntu Touch, JollaOS, and semi by extension, GrapheneOS

Awesome thanks again for all of this Cobalt! Glad you got to get into maintainence/creation of all kinds of things yourself too.

Let’s make all kinds of fun things!

So in a way we need more alternatives made from people who are laid instead of them going to same companies that will just lay them off again

Appreciate all this too, thank you!
