  PostmarketOS is cool, but as an actual phone replacement it is tough.

    I haven’t tried, but I took a closer look at their wiki yesterday:

    • the Main (official) devices are QEMU, i.e. virtual
    • the list of Community devices is long, but whenever I clicked on something it seems that none os working sufficiently.

    IMHO they should focus their efforts on getting at least one actual phone working fully.

    I want this project to succeed, but until then I use Sailfish OS, btw.

    I’m looking at a Volla phone volla.online/en/

    But I also have no experience of Linux in general yet so I have no idea if this is a good move.

    I just really want to get away from android/apple/windows on all of my devices.

    I want SteamOS for desktop, because quite frankly gaming is all I really use a desktop for anymore.

      Maybe look into Bazzite if you get impatient waiting for SteamOS to become more widely available.

      I’m going to second a recommendation for Bazzite. If you’ve used normal Linux before, it takes some getting used to the quirks of an atomic distro, but I’ve been using it for a month or two and love it!

      Volla also has a (reliable, judging from reports) community version of SFOS

      Didn’t know volla. Looks cool but expensive.

      I don’t think steamos on desktop is a good idea, IIRC it targets specific hardware.
