Same, though I think this will be the push the community needs to really launch a good Linux phone. It'll suck for awhile, but I'm looking forward to debating phone distros with all of you.
I'm using arch mobile btw
Sorry it took so long to reply, I was waiting for Gentoo to finish compiling on my phone.
Compling the message*
I use Debian as my daily driver and am disappointed to see that the best-supported devices under Mobian within my budget are the Pinephone (which has shockingly low specs) or the Pinephone Pro (recently discontinued, no longer sold. Also had poor specs).
I was toying with was getting an SBC with an LTE/5G hat & 7in touch screen, plugging it into a portable battery, and 3d printing a case for it.
Fairphone with PostMarketOS seems more practical.
What are your thoughts on the Furi Phone?
I'd get disappointed if its distro wouldn't be called FuriOS

phew
I have the PinePhone Pro in a drawer somewhere. It's just a fun toy, not even remotely usable as a daily driver. But I might have a look at it again and see how many tasks still remains before I could theoretically use Mobian as a daily driver.
