Second wave of Linux phones?
The Google announcement, even if they “will listen to feedback”, rightfully alarmed many.
I mean, it’s been a maintained project for over a decade
But new devices are coming: the new Jolla and Fairphone latest news about foss
The year of the Linux phones.
I think I will take the jump with my FP4 sometime in the first half of 2026. So far the big blocker is Signal, as it still requires a mobile app to be the main application. Maybe I will keep a secondary, cheap Android phone running Lineage in a drawer somewhere.
I would rather go for postmarketOS than Ubuntu Touch, and there have been some recent advancements on that front for Fairphone 4 (camera and battery gauge), but I think Ubuntu Touch could be a good stepping stone.
