I ditched Big Tech and used ONLY the Jolla Phone (2026) for 7 days straight. Here is the good, the bad, and the unexpected about living without Google or App...
That was my go to, but then they refused to give me a deductible invoice for my company (which is just me and my wife). It would have been a not-insignificant tax cut, as €700 is an expense deducted from our profit tax, but because we don’t have an EU-VAT number (being a minuscule company), they refused. We had no problems with other companies. So I just went for a Motorola instead (which was tax deductible). I really wanted their phone, but their complete unwillingness to cooperate, while I’m trying to buy their (arguably justified) overpriced phone, has made me a non-customer for life. A shame because I really sympathise with what they represent, but if I’m spending €700 on a mid-range phone, I want that spent money, to at least save me some money.
Some features are supported but I think I have seen recent posts that more features are getting support over time so it will hopefully be more features supported soon.
That was also on my list when I was looking for a new phone but I got the FP6 instead.

Are you using Android, e/OS or Nura on the FP6?
I have e/os
@Jumi @Sunshine does FP6 supposrts NURA?
@TheMightyCat@ani.social has been working on it unless I am remembering incorrectly.

I don’t even know what NURA is, sorry
I think NURA is the new name for PostmarketOS.
