@justin @kde @cyberlyra @socallinuxexpo @[email protected] @linmob @plasmamobile @postmarketOS As much as I love what they are doing, I find the device far from what other devices offer on the market today. I don't want to give up so much on performance or camera quality, for example.
@aitorpazos @kde @cyberlyra @socallinuxexpo @[email protected] @linmob @plasmamobile @postmarketOS and that's completely fair. I have a OnePlus 6 that I use postmarketOS + Plasma Mobile on for tinkering in the hopes of one day daily driving it.
