I don't think privacy enthusiasts use vanilla Android. People will stick to Lineage/Graphene for as long as it works and then switch to something like Postmarket. It's already in a state where it's rough but usable.

    Europe: Companies can't lock down your operating system.

    Also Europe: Companies must force back doors into their operating systems.

    I wonder how long those two things can coexist.

    We need FOSS phones badly and in numbers that manufacturing isn't horrible. That is until our governments force carriers not to connect them.

    If I could find a reasonably priced 8" Linux tablet, I'd sell my phone and buy a cellular wifi AP.
