iPhone 12 mini here. I don't know when or what my next phone will be, but I want to get as far away from Apple and Google as possible. I seriously considered just going back to a landline, but I discovered Century Link no longer offers POTS, it's only VOIP now, which surprised me.

    It was briefly available as a kit but there were issues bringing it to production. Justine did her best and got the kits out to people that waited. It’s all available a open source though so the hardware, boards and firmware are available to be improved upon.
