I am enjoying /e/ on the Fairphone.

Im very tempted to just get a small cyber-deck setup and "call" it a day ;). https://www.clockworkpi.com/shop is VERY close to what I want.

Serously, the only people that "Call" me are spam callers. Everyone SMSs or something similar. A small linux device can do the same when you think about it. The only thing I am missing is a directions app and Ill personally be fine.

    If by "directions app" you mean navigation, there are several on F-Droid. I keep seeing lots of positive talk about Organic Maps lately if you need somewhere to start.

    I honestly don't use my phone much either, it's as you say, mostly for text based messages.

    Luckily I don't get spam calls because in my country we have pretty good privacy laws still:
    like my number is set to private and I'm on the "Robinson" list, and if someone calls that's not in my contacts list I don't pick up. Cold calls is how they get ya, and once they know there's someone picking up, it's like sharks smelling blood.
    The app I use the most, besides my banking app (which I've confirmed works in waydroid aka LineageOS), is probably the Lidl app πŸ˜‚.
    I do still use Google Pay quite a bit, but I'm fine going back to card. I don't even know if NFC works in LineageOS or /e/OS.
    And like you said, as long as the phone can do some GPS stuff for navigation, that's mostly all I need. And browse the internet (IronFox) every now and then.
