I was gonna buy a pinephone, but i want to know if this is really the best choice. I’m a real fan of the hardware switches. Any recommendations?

for sms+calls to work much much there i a little bit of very easy work: to install the “modem distro” instead of the original OS running the modem chip. yes it means you can ssh into your modem and edit its crontab also…:)

@JoeBidet I settled on mobian. I think I tried pmOS (this was back in '21? '20??) and a couple of thers I don’t remember. I do remember ssh-ing for something else, never edited crontab though. Sounds interesting! I’ll have a look at that. Still have the phone. Be great if I could make it useful 😆
