@cyberwolfie I used postmarket with phosh interface on it for a month. I am impressed with its stability and overall experience. Most of drivers are already out. Is even better supported than Fairphone 4. However, it has no audio support. No microphones or speakers are working ATM. You can use sound via Bluetooth or USB for now.

Once it gets audio support I will get back on pmOS. Until that, I am also daily driving calyx on it.

@markkdark also waiting for a decent phone size to use with Linux myself.

Currently, I use a Fairphone 5 only because size is its only negative aspect. Apart from size, it has upgradeable battery and storage, decent performance and very good camera. As soon as there is another option at around 6 inch ready for Linux, I will sell this tablet from Fairphone.

@DerisionConsulting @poVoq even on custom android ROMs you don't have full camera support.

@RecallMadness @poVoq oneplus 6/6t is the one supported by most of linux distros and also has close to 99% compatibility and stability.

@qkall @linuxphones @PINE64

is the fan really needed? as in temperature wise? or is just for fun?

@chiefbongo @Tixanou @velox_vulnus ppa is for system updates. flatpak is for app updates.

@haui_lemmy not more than any other interface. We need to have options. You would probably find less than 5% of people who will be selecting an iOS like interface, due to Apple being ferociously anti Foss ecosystem. But is good to have that option too.
