Isn't /e/os (murena) a seperate company from fairphone?

Yes, and I don't know if it could even be classed as a collaboration. They just buy them and resell them with different firmware, basically?

I assume some part of acceptance is required for that in practice, but it isn't like Fairphone ever advertised them as an official option (as far as I can tell or saw).

Well, Fairphone sells phones with e/OS preinstalled on their website so at the very least they like each other

So instead of seeing an opportunity to do the same, they burned bridges with one of the only companies not locking down their OS?

They are just saying that e/OS has delays of important updates that lag. Which the fairphine team then pretty much confirmed.

Am I a dick for pointing out factual information? Are they? When it comes to something like security and privacy there should be no compromises. The truth should be heard.
