"Where to buy a non-Apple, non-Google smartphone"

theregister.com/2026/05/01/buy

I use a #Librem5 #Linux #phone. With the default #PureOS operating system.

Enjoy your #freedom, break free from #Google and #Apple.

Have a full Linux computer in your pocket that you can also use for calling.

Questions? Ask me.

@janvlug One important question, van it handle BankID and Swish? Made for bankhandling and monytransfer?

@jajo Sorry, I cannot answer this question, I'm not familiar with BankID and Swish.

For banking I actually never use my phone, I use a browser on my Linux desktop or Linux laptop. I can use the browser for banking on the #Librem5 as well though.

@janvlug For me and everybody else in the nordic countries they use these apps and it's a no go without them.

@jajo @janvlug Here in Poland there is one kind of instant payments that can't be done without my bank's mobile app (Blik) - but their Android app works fine in Waydroid.

Some banks around the world require platform attestation which is extremely user hostile though. If your bank is among those, you should complain to them and maybe look for alternatives.

@dos Sounds like the swedish Bankid and swish. Almost every phone here iphone och android uses is. So easy! @janvlug
