My phone’s just bitten the dust and now I need to look for a new one again.

Thought I’d test the waters and see what kinds of phones people on here are using nowadays and what for, what features set them apart if any etc

Bonus points if anyone’s managed to get mainline linux running on them either via KVM or bare metal

Edit: Thanks for everyone who talked about their choices of phone, I am now writing this on a fairphone 4 and am quite happy with it so far.

    Give me another apple. (Another: one more of the same)

    We regret to inform you that we chose an other candidate. (An other: a different one)

    But the form “an other” is extremely rare, most likely because it is confusing in spoken language.

      I don’t think I’ve seen that usage, “…an other candidate.” They’d either just use “another” or there would be a verbal ellipsis, like “We chose an…other candidate.” Or they’d just say “a different candidate.”
