@jameshjacksonjr @eliasr @purism I really want a Pinephone! Just have to wait till they're more readily available to the masses...
@syntax @eliasr https://fosstodon.org/@PINE64/104490888609917758 see they have some more get one before they are gone.
@jameshjacksonjr
I'm actually in two minds about whether to invest this early on. I understand these models are aimed more at early adopters and developers, and i feel I wouldn't get a lot of use out of it with hardly any of the usual apps I use etc. Still a happy LineageOS user for now. Still love to see all the progress though.
@syntax yeah some people its hard getting off android apps best to to wait see if those apps you need come my app needs are simple on the go Mastodon IRC Matrix browser sms browser email podcasts music calls and thats about it the rest I do on my laptop.
@syntax what apps do you use that wouodnt be available on pinephone and or Librem 5?
@jameshjacksonjr
I guess a lot of the android apps I install via the F-Droid store, such as ProtonVPN/OpenVPN, Element, Nextcloud apps, Session, Signal, Fedilab, Firefox etc.
@jameshjacksonjr
Some of those I had to install manually actually, such as Session and Signal.

Out of stock
