Jesus! permalink fedilink source parent [–] lukecooperatus@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 year ago This is a good idea, except that it requires money. I already have an old Pixel right here that I can put Graphene on. I guess my point is, it's not necessary to harass people about their choice of phone OS before you know their situation. 🤷 permalink fedilink source parent [–] fruitycoder@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago Which phone do you suggest then? Like I ALSO have a Librem 5, it's just a lot of quirk. Its also not an answer to someone with an Android phone already unless they just have extra money for it. Hopefully we see better Android emulation on Librem type phones though and that gap closes. permalink fedilink source parent
