Fuck Android. I want a vanilla phone that I can install Linux into…fully open source so we can be sure Walmart is not gathering ideas of what to sell me next.
Have you looked at grapheneOS? Its essentially a fork of the android open source project with extra privacy features. So, regular android apps still work for the most part, but you dont have google spyware built in.
That may be the best option right now, but it’s still a far cry from an upstreamed device
They aren’t able to support devices longer than Qualcomm and Google maintain the random out-of-tree drivers for a chipset, and even state such in their “legacy support” for harm reduction
