* Check postmarketOS wiki for best supported devices
* Go find one in acceptable conditon on ebay
* Use it until it dies or a significantly better supported device exists
* Repeat

While not exactly the same, remember that what is happening with #CrowdStrike could also easily happen with kernel level #anticheat software. Giving proprietary software vendors permission to insert whatever they please into your kernel, especially with the ability to auto update it, means giving up all control of your system to that software vendor. One day CrowdStrike, the next Riot Vanguard. Don't let this garbage into your system! A game is not worth losing your system or your data over.

@mntmn Not sure about that particular SoC, but the SDM845 has full OpenGL and Vulkan support in postmarketOS! Blender runs pretty well on my OnePlus 6T. That chip is newer but if Freedreno supports its variant of the Adreno GPU I see no reason it wouldn't run Blender well. Side note, I really want a Fairphone 5 but they're not sold in the US :( I may have to pay the exorbitant import cost, having a new, modern pmOS supported phone would be excellent.

@nixCraft My Razer Balde 14 2021 model cost over 2500 when I got it at launch. Love the design but not the price.

@itsfoss I want to say 15, but I didn't like my first experience with it. A year later I started using Ubuntu 6.06 and loved it.
