I really love what /e/ is doing, but the Bliss launcher is my least favorite part, and I've noticed reviewers unaware with Android you can easily change launchers sometimes also site it as a negative. Maybe give users choices of launchers to go with at install - Quickstep is my current preference and is FOSS as well.

@e_mydata PART 1:
I tried /e once, and bought a refurbished S9 from you. But I was disappointed. The idea behind it is very good and also very important, but I think the implementation is not the best... too many, but too old phone models are supported, based on old Android 10 and 11.

GrapheneOS and Calyx OS have already been on Android 13 for months. I can easily flash them myself on a brand new Pixel 7.

@e_mydata PART 2:

Why not concentrate on 1 device each in the low, mid & high end range with current Android, + FairPhone 4 extra? That would certainly be more interesting for many than spending a lot of money on old hardware and old Android versions.
