It’s honestly not the feature set of Linux on Mobile that holds me back from the permanent switch, it’s consistent availability of compatible hardware.
And there’s great strides happening towards fully open mobile hardware platforms.
The year of Linux on Mobile is steadily approaching. I predict it’ll be similarly disruptive as Android’s meteoric rise.
