    I know it’s not really ready for it yet, but I guess I’m gonna be looking into a Linux phone before I thought I would.

      Same, though this will be the push the community needs to really launch a Linux phone. It’ll suck for awhile, but I’m looking forward to debating phone distros with all of you.

        Sorry it took so long to reply, I was waiting for Gentoo to finish compiling on my phone.

        I use Debian as my daily driver and am disappointed to see that the best-supported devices under Mobian within my budget are the Pinephone (which has shockingly low specs) or the Pinephone Pro (recently discontinued, no longer sold. Also had poor specs).

        I was toying with was getting an SBC with an LTE/5G hat & 7in touch screen, plugging it into a portable battery, and 3d printing a case for it.

        Fairphone with PostMarketOS seems more practical.
