This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Today 10 years ago I went to Poland to buy a Phone with pre installed #Firefox OS on. The Phone was a Alcatel One, so very shitty. Two years later I installed Firefox OS on my Nexus 5 instead.
It was a very good concept, but sadly rolled out on too shitty hardware so it never caught on.
Rad! I just threw ubuntu touch on my nexus 6p... Far from perfect, but a great premise of a new era!
I wish so much that there was a solid Linux phone that was just as viable as any android-based device.
There are some options, but nothing that just works.
I usually buy last year's pixel model when they go on sale around end of year. prefer to use my desktop as eyes aren't great at skimming tiny text. on a 6a which should last until next year. could get by with much less
I also got one (not sure which model) to play around with.
It was... okay. It very much felt like an alpha release. Lots of features were broken or simply missing.
I should have it in a drawer somewhere
So sad it didn't take off, I would love to have an alternative to Android or iOS right now
How was Firefox OS on the Nexus 5?
As far as I remember much more fluid to use but still riddled with all the bugs.
