Thereโ€™s more interest I have seen first hand in the groups. Many phones have locked bootloaders.

    More interest is a very far cry from "linux phones are booming". Linux phones are not booming, they are niche projects for people that like to tinker and don't need any of the most popular phone apps and features.

    Until we can install linux on more than a couple phones, trust cellular connections across all the networks and have access to the majority of features and apps that a smart phone should possess, linux phones will never "boom".

    I say this as a Ubuntu touch user on the Fairphone 4. It is not an experience that anyone else I know would accept from their smartphone.
