Georg Weissenbacher@david_bardos I agree with most limitations, but the fingerprint sensor actually works perfectly fine on #UbuntuTouch 24.04 on my #Fairphone5, and the new Qt6-based version of Morph is a significant improvement. But as all the OSes in your list (except postmarketOS), it is dependent on the Android drivers and kernel (via Halium), which at this point is quite outdated. I really enjoy Ubuntu Touch (in fact, I am writing this on UT in the uMastonauts App), but as a daily driver, GrapheneOS is probably a better choice.

It's unfortunate that the main camera didn't work for you on the Fairphone, but in #UbuntuTouch the cameras work extremely well on several devices, so your article could be revised to be more nuanced than just saying that the camera won't work on a de-Googled phone. Here are two photos that show otherwise: one close-up, the other distant, both on a OnePlus 6T

Cameras on OnePlus 6T โworkโ very basically in #pmOS, but terribly. The exact same hardware works extremely well in #UbuntuTouch. I'm supportive of #pmOS and #Mobian but they really don't work as well as #UbuntuTouch on OP6T. I patiently await improvement before I'll be ready to switch fully.

Dรกvid BรกrdosSince Iโve had a degoogled phone, Iโve been happy to share my experiences with those who are also looking for a solution. Iโve summarized my experience in this post.
Youโll find out what options I considered and tried, as well as what inconveniences are worth keeping in mind. I also provide an example of how to collect whatโs important for you when choosing a device for degoogling.

Well I would *prefer* to have a #pmOS phone that *works* (especially the cameras), but until that day arrives I'm very happy with second-hand OnePluses running #UbuntuTouch on Halium, and running very well thanks. It would be nice not to be dependent on the Halium layer, Android drivers etc. But having LineageOS running in a Waydroid container on #UbuntuTouch is also very nice, as it opens up the #fdroid app space and apks too. Linux-only purism isn't very helpful.

ImmyBy the way, if you were thinking about getting a OnePlus Nord N100 to run Ubuntu Touch be mindful that itโs not the easiest installation process; Youโll have to run a proprietary EDL flashing tool on Windows to install the specific firmware version that Ubuntu Touch needs, which is me making it sound far more seamless and problem free than it actually was; this was an all-afternoon project for me.
