Just bought a Fairphone 5 and installed /e/os myself through their adb script (they only had normal android ones in stock). So far, it works flawlessly and even managed to install my bank app. I haven't tried wallet as don't tend to use it. Everything else works and not missing the Samsung s22 ultra I moved from.

I'm thinking of doing the same with my current Android FP5. Does it wipe everything or are you able to keep some apps during the process?

I'm not sure as installed it on a brand new phone, sorry

No problem, thank you for the follow-up.

Pretty fucking ironic that they're a de-googled OS but require a google based browser to view their device compatibility list.

It's working well for me with Firefox, both, on Linux and on Android.

No, but it has obvious technical reasons, as webUSB isn't implemented (or enabled?) in Firefox (yet?).

Oh, that's the installer, not the device compatibility list. I did a search on "web USB" and the first thing that popped up is something from Mozilla about it being experimental, so I guess Firefox doesn't support it. But the other pages look fine to me on LibreWolf.
