A friend recently gifted me a PinePhone so I've been playing around with it and testing various linux distros on it. I've elected to use postmarketOS running Phosh and it's surprisingly usable as a phone. When it does break (due to user error of course) I can plug in a keyboard via USB-C and open a tty to fix it, or open an SSH connection to it (assuming that didn't break due to user error too).
Now, it's been fucking hot here due to a heatwave and my place—generally being much warmer than outside due to gigantic east-west facing windows (seriously, they take up nearly the entire wall)—that I haven't been able to take my ADHD meds the past few days. So being able to do nothing but tinker with linux on a phone has been interesting, but fun enough to distract me from the pains of living in this terrible accommodation lol.
Also, thanks Australia for forcing me to use a new phone due to the absolutely scuffed 3G (+ the 4G/5G devices we won't tell you about until we block them randomly!) shutdown. Fucking e-waste producing gremlins...
Neat! I've always wanted to try a pine phone. I recently decided to try the iPhone after using Android for a decade and I absolutely hate it. I find it really hard to use which is funny because of its reputation.
