The Furi Labs phone actually looks decent for a Linux phone. Outdated SoC, but probably good enough. Is Phosh actually usable now or is it still pretty janky?
Also, gotta note that I hate how a lot of these Linux phone companies talk about having amazing security when they’re actually talking about privacy. Security is definitely gonna be worse than Android.
My problem is they had this phone then released a Linux version and made it worse but just added a letter onto the name. I’ll pass the screen is the thing used the .OST and they put in a worse one.
Android has (as standard) stuff like sandboxing, SELinux, verified boot, FDE, etc. It’s possible to get stuff like this working on normal Linux, but it’s a lot of work (more for some things than others). Also the standard Linux solutions for e.g. sandboxing are just not as robust as what’s provided by Android.

How so?

Xperia 10 III is much better with SailfishOS, it you can get one second hand (it’s officially supported).
