Anyone have a pine phone and running Linux (Ubuntu) as your EDC?

Thinking of buying a cheap phone with new number to see how it goes. Would like to talk and text though.

Any excitement on these new developments and with what is going on with frame works also?

Edit: What phone would you recommend to do it with? Pine phone is med range pricing.

I currently have a GP6a

Chiming in to say that my Fairphone 4 worked well with Ubuntu Touch, though I have since come to the conclusion that Waydroid doesn’t really work for my usage due to many social apps not integrating well with notifications, as well as missing AGPS support, so I am back on Android with CalyxOS. If you find that GNU/Linux is not daily-driveable for you, I can definitely recommend that.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
