@ocean I've been using LineageOS for 7+ years. Always preferred full open source. got 99% working (all except that mcd app :)
I'd be able to move many to an open source app - but only those of us who can live with stuff like this - is going to use it, if it can't support it. We really should fix these silly things, so we can run open source on our phones too - instead of our laptops only.
What phones have you been using it on? I’ve been interesting in a FOSS phone. I also don’t like that only my computers and servers can run Linux.
@ocean my oldest was a google nexus 5 - worked great. Latest is a fairphone 5 - haven't gotten lineageOS working with the "latest edition" of magisk. LineageOS has a long list of phones it works on. Pick any.
If anyone wants to win a bigger market they need to make a phone that can run ALL android apps.. I'm sure there's legal threats holding lineageOS from doing so though :(
