The only things not working yet in my image are:

Front camera NPU Fingerprint sensor

If these are not a dealbreaker for being daily driver ready then its daily driver ready.

    Thank you for the clarification! I'd have to be pretty into tinkering with Linux, to use it right? Not that I personally mind, but I don't think it's something I should just recommend my 70yo dad who can barely use macos quite yet as his daily driver... Right?

    I really wanna try the fairphone (and your image!) but I can't justify the price. It's not the phone's problem, though, it's more of a problem with my level of disposable income lol

    The installation requires some linux knowledge yes, the usage after is pretty simple.

    Issue is any person used to android is going to wonder "why is this app suddenly gone from the store". Unless you use waydroid, but I'm not sure how seamless the experience is there. Or if they don't use any apps that don't have linux equivalents.
