Better than I expected.
But I also worry this is the first twist of the dial to boil the frog.

This is a huge relief, for me.
It means that I can keep my current phone until it dies, which should give Linux phone enough time to mature that I never buy an Android phone again!
It sounds like Linux phone is close to being “ready” as a daily driver, at least for power users. Reliable VoLTE sounds like it’s not quite there, which is necessary for me (living in a country with only VoLTE calling).
At some point I want to setup linux on my android phone and tablet with chroot. I have heard devices with reasonably good output are getting some pretty amazing performance.
To me this could be one of those moments like how the steam deck basically opened the door for linux on pc’s. The hardware is there. A modern phone with 12gb of ram can do plenty at this point.

To be fair, old people and less tech-savvy people would download apps from scammers giving them access to everything.
I think this is a reasonable middle ground.
I could not care less about the children lol.
Being fair, I have to help people that didn’t install from third-party stores or side-loading that get hit with apps that basically keep popping full screen ads and fake infection warnings. So many bad/scamy apps are in the official Play Store. It is possible that some of the spam apps somehow hide the prompts within some of the ads to enable installing from unknown sources in order to side-load more. But Google should be putting all the effort to stop users from using apks and third-party stores into getting their own house in order.
