Which distro would you want to see more software developed for? Ubuntu Touch, Droidian, or PostMarketOS? (lemmy.zip)

Since I'm going to switch to Linux Mobile soon after Android gets locked down, I was also considering getting involved in developing software for it since I imagine one major problem is the lack of support. However, I'm not sure which distro to daily drive or develop for, so I was curious what the community thinks.

postmarketOS does not "rewrite everything from scratch" luckily, the project wouldn't be anywhere near where it is today.

A lot of tools and daemons abd patches have been made, but also a lot of things are re-used. :)

(Just to clarify, perhaps the wording was just off?)

    Maybe. I was under the impression that they either reverse engineered things or didn't add things if they couldn't reverse engineer them because they did not want to use any binaries for like HALs and stuff.
