I have a work phone I can fall back to in the worst case scenario, and I have been consciously avoiding phone use a lot lately.
I am ready to ride out some bugs in a Linux phone.
Edit to add: Or, given the state of the US government and its potential close ties to various tech oligarchs, maybe I should just keep this old iphone as long as possible and just not put anything sensitive on it. I mean we're talking about violent people who think "if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to worry about" is unassailable logic.
