The rationale is interesting. I'm glad they kept the logo as it's recycling ♻️

List of working devices can be found here - https://wiki.nura.eco/wiki/Devices

Unfortunately there are few with complete functionality. I believe the project has been on hold while they do an audit and figure out governance. Hopefully the name change means that process is nearing completion and the focus can return to device functionality. Forgive me if i'm mistaking this for another project though.

    FP6, "unofficially" as in, the patches are in a newer kernel version iirc, so when Nura catches up to said version, all the patches will work out of the box. ✨ For more info, I'd suggest checking this Community for all the FP6 updates

    So, a phone that's still well in the support window of the original vendor plus probably years more via LineageOS. I don't see a ton of value in postmarketOS on the FP6.

    Just in case, this is a Linux Phone forum. So the value is that, Naru is not android. Which matters when Google is incrementally releasing less and less of AOSP. But even then, you can still run Android inside Naru (and other Mobile Linux options) via Waydroid.

    Why is there no value in mobile linux on a modern phone?

    Atleast for me the value for Nura (which im glad is why they dropped the old name) is that its mainline linux, not that the orginal vendor doesn't support it anymore.
