Jolla with SailfishOS or Motorola with Graphene? (lemmy.world)

I just got my pre-order of the Jolla Phone confirmed. I was super stoked on having a European Linux Based phone.

However Motorola announced collaboration with Graphene during this period.

I am really torn, I love Motorolas and have used them for the last five years. Also Graphene seems a bit more open source and secure ad I've always said I would switch the instant they launched on a non-google phone.

Does anyone here have input on this, or maybe suggestions for a certain comm where this question would find better ground? (I didn't want to ask os specific comms as that would be unbecoming)

Great points. Im adamant in not buying a pixel, so that's out.

I wan't to support Jolla, yet I really want to get aboard the Moto. That could be a year out, though, but supporting both is a bit rich for my blood. Hence the question.

    The used Pixel recommendation was just a short-term quick-fix until the Motorola becomes available, while still making sure to not give any money to Google. Once the Motorola is available it could go back to secondary market.

    I respect if you don't want to deal with Pixel devices at all though. Then Jolla might be the better way. If Jolla does everything you need right now I would say go for it. Maybe look up some in-depth review videos to make sure beforehand.

    Played around with the PinePhone, but was not yet ready to be my daily driver ~2 years ago. Currently only GrapheneOS does everything that I need from a daily driver - exceptionally well. Which forces me to use Pixel devices. I'll happily switch to Motorola once that's out.
