“OMG, I have an iPhone!” Yeah, you have an iPhone, so what? You’re the best? You can FaceTime your friends, despite you and your friends probably having, like, 7 other apps to do so? And no UI customizability or jailbreaking?

I’m just unable to understand the Apple/iOS hype. It makes my eyes roll. I’m content with my Samsung and Android, thanks.

    I’m not. I want a workable Linux phone. Mobian on a OnePlus 6 gets close, but not quite there. I’m happy to deal with not completely ready software, but i need workable hardware at decent specs. The OP6 has workable specs, and you can get a good lots of stuff working, but it’s still missing some critical hardware support like camera and a lot of the sensors, and better battery management (though it still does surprisingly well). Screw all these vendors for not mainlining their hardware into the kernel. And fuck Google for enabling that behavior.
