4 months agoUbuntu Touch is the easiest to just get a working phone with, because it uses the Android kernel that ships with the device, but I absolutely like the flexibility in desktop environment, and availability of flatpak apps on postmarketOS. I honestly can’t wait until I can switch full-time to postmarketos.
I would much rather have more software developed for postmarketos

If they can get a few phones that everything “just works” I think Nura will be better for linux enthusiasts coming from android. I have a Fairphone 5 with Gnome Mobile installed and it feels at home, and a very similar UX with how in would use a phone under android, with how apps are switched and how the phone interacts (pull down quick settings for wifi/GPS/notifications, etc) obviously android is more polished with features. But I like it better than Ubports UX, and I’m not a fan that Ubports has to have custom made apps while also not supporting flatpaks.
Though both are a success for getting linux ecosystem on a phone, so I’m not hating, I just prefer the UX and apps support of a project like Nura better.
