I don't think we need a Linux-Based Phone, A deGoogled Android fork would do, and it would be a familiar place for most users.

Hopefully a company like Samsung offers deGoogled options in the future.

    Samsung? that must be a joke right?

    I agree that android itself is not really our "opponent". It'll take at least a decade until the community puts together something as remotely capable as android. It would be much easier to take AOSP, or Calyx, and revert google changes that do not tie users into google services, but still were strongarmed in there by google, several things that are limiting user freedom (that is, without accessible options to turn the restrictions off).

    Samsung is just an example. I would like any big manufacturer to fork Android and strip Google out of it.

    If Samsung does it, it would be great for the deGoogle movement, and would open the floodgates for others.
