CalyxOS, the Android-based, privacy-focused operating system, is back after nearly a year-long pause following the founder and tech lead’s departure.

I'm in the same boat. They suggest Seedvault, which I haven't tried yet. I'll do the factory reset when I don't crucially need my phone, I'll take it as an opportunity to declutter a bit. I don't need much for a functional setup. The painful part will be manually re-entering the config for my WebDAV server. Definitely not ideal, though.

    I've never had any luck with SeedVault, but I'm sure it's me. If a dumbphone is able to support Signal, that would really be all I would need.

    Sounds like Punkt MP02 which has its own Signal client, but I’ve never seen any real feedback on it

    Thank! I actually saw that when it first came out, but Signal doesn't officially support it, which means the app could stop working at any point. That's an unfortunate dealbreaker for me. The lack of a QWERTZ or QWERTY keyboard is a bummer, but not a dealbreaker.
