Couldn’t agree more Especially when the Pine Phone Pro is improving every year since its has came out and with Posh shell and Waydroid nothing will stop Linux from succeeding in the modern era

The PinePhone Pro was officially discontinued in August 2025, as it didn’t sell well enough to keep production going.[7]

Graphene OS

As far as I know, it is still reliant on the whims of Google through shenanigans with AOSP, and of course having to use a Pixel.
Linux offers a more solid and independent foundation, and while it is less polished yet, to me it’s the only real way out.

They’ve signed with an OEM (still secret atm, but the best guess seems to be Motorola?) who will produce the first flagship GrapheneOS device sometime this or next year iirc. Supposed to be revealing the manufacturer next month. That’ll at least take some of the Google dependency by having to use Pixels.

Yep, heard a bit about it. Didn’t include here because it’s still a big WIP.

Yup, if enough people switch to graphene big G will fuck them over. Exiting entirely is the only long term solution.
