I mean, you can run a Linux phone now, but you aren’t going to have a large software library optimized for touchscreen/phone use, and the hardware options are pretty disappointing compared to Android.

I still haven’t been pushed over the edge, but I’m definitely keeping my eye on it. I’m just not willing to develop software for Android. I know that GNU/Linux phones will stay open. I am not at all sure that Android won’t wind up locked down by Google at some point, and over the years, it’s definitely shifted in that direction.
