      You could just buy an android phone that encourages this. All Pixels, for example.

          No, but buy a different one when this one breaks is.

        +1 for Pixels but -1 for Google’s “support”. You’ll never talk to a human with them. I love GrapheneOS on my Pixel though, and they’re really the only phones you can install it on cause you can re-lock the bootloader on it after installing. CalyxOS (fork of Graphene with slightly less sandboxing) does support FairPhone 4&5 and a few Motorola phones though.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Rules

  • Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
