afaik GNOME Shell mobile is still very new and less polished than phosh.
The challenge is that these days a phone is rarely used for calls or texts, but used with apps like WhatsApp or Teams or Slack or your mobile banking app, or things like that. And so there would need to be a critical mass of these apps to get me to switch.
Yup. Or Waydroid (or others) mature like Wine/Proton has.
SafetyNet is an issue though
SafetyNet is also an issue on Android as soon as you modify anything or install a custom ROM :/
I hate how corporations name their lock-in bullshit names that make it sound like it’s for the user’s protection when it’s just protecting their garbage monopolies. I’d argue an open platform not under Google’s control is more secure and safer for my data than a Google spy machine.
Yes. But if 90% of your friends use it, and have groups in it where things are planned and organised, then by not having it you’re going to be missing out on a big chunk of things going on around you.
For years I wanted a Linux phone.
So I switched from iPhone to Android.
Android uses a Linux kernel but the Android layer is not as transparent as Linux PC distros. As instance I have hard time to remove the bloat.
If you hate yourself enough, any will do
Currently on Phosh on postamarketOS. Would’ve loved to use Plasma mobile but it is very unstable.
