Interested in hearing everyone's experience using alternative phone OS's. Have you ever used Lineage or Graphene, Pursim, pinephone? Was it good enough to replace your android/iphone?

I use a 20+ y.o. Nokia I bought for 20Eu and works/looks like new I have no idea what the OS for nokia was back then, you know the one with a 9icon square menu :)

I have had an encyclopedic interest on pinephone ... but I can't yet justify the cost of one. I have 2-3 older Nokias still very functional but heavier as backups incase some decade this one refuses to boot again.

Nokia ran Windows Phone OS. It flopped because no one used it because there were no apps so no one made apps because no one used it.
