Anyone got any of that Linux phone
Yes but it's still more of a toy than actually worth using.
It'll get there eventually, it always does.
I think what's worrying is what the landscape will look like when it's done. E-sims are a very bad sign for the future. It gives much more granular choices in what phones they permit on the network.
I worry that as long as Apple is out here spouting bullshit about scanning people's messages to protect them from "nudes", eventually we'll reach a place where any phone that isn't actively monitoring its user will be perceived as doing something criminal and blocked out.
Just a moment to note that Apple backtracked on all those threats about CSAM scanning and now doesn't support the technology being implemented.
You mean the EU and German government proposals for a few years? :/ Luckily courts block that so far but who knows what will be next and where in it will happen!

Sxmo postmarketos pinephone is definitely daily driveable! Fediverse apps have webapps n stuff. Its doable, but you gotta be willing to put up with a lot :/
Do they make phones?
"Linux" does not make phones, no.
But there are several small projects currently working on a linux-based alternative to iOS and Android. A true 3rd option has been sorely needed for a very long time, but never as much as it is now.
Wait? Android isn't Linux based?
