Someone managed to run Linux on a Pixel 9 Pro XL (Android phone from Google) using the Terminal app, setting up XFCE within it. https://old.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/1ja82u9/working_linux_xfce_on_pixel_9_pro_xl/
@nixCraft
I would love another concerted effort for Linux Phones with privacy and personalisation being at the forefront.
Ubuntu Touch simply is not that good at the moment. Would love a lot of work on that or a new one
@elliotjmackness #SailfishOS is pretty good actually as a Mobile Linux on phone, is even comercially supported for a few models (from Sony and Reeder) and is based in Europe.
(and even has solutions for apps that one absolute need, but only exists on Android)
And this toot sent from a Pinephone Pro running a community build of SFOS.
@dryak ive wanted to try it out. Would you recommend Jolla or a Sony with Sailfish loaded?
