     @itsfoss had an Aquarius e5 a few years ago, used it as daily driver for almost two years. Wouldn’t try again. Banking apps? Bluetooth in the car was bad, gps hardly worked in the car. The UBports gui is okay, but not appeal no. My no go: apps. Not that I need many, but alas e.g. I cannot book a train ticket or a hotel room, no casual games or news apps are available, I cannot access my bank accounts, linux phone feels like a dead horse.

     @itsfoss I have a Fairphone 3 and had Ubuntu Touch running on it for a while. It works fine but the Waydroid solution for getting some apps to work is really clunky.
     I am now running e/OS and am really happy with it. I think the App Lounge is really well done and is integrated with F-Droid.

     @itsfoss Need to be seperate shitty g_ogles filthy ecosystem; such as libraries, package system, distrubition system...
     Biggest issue is out-of-the-box...
     Stupid hardware manufacturers (except for a few that support open source) need to support projects like this, but it's very difficult due to economic reasons and their business approach. I don't know how we can use any hardware with Linux without the manufacturer's permission/intervention... It's very disappointing....
