This week marks 18 months since I have been using a #librem5 as a daily driver. The first few months were probably the roughest, but I have not needed to use Android at all in those 18 months.

Today, I actually find it quite useable! It just works as a phone, and I can do everything I used to do on my Android Phone on it.

@kop316 I don't mean to be a prick, but these claims seem disingenuous to me.

I have tried using a one plus6 with phosh and KDE and they are so far from usable to me. Is the librem that far ahead? I assume you are driving phosh.

I want to use a Linux phone, but the current crop are still worse than the nokia n9 was in 2011.

The idea you don't need to touch android, to me, implies that you do almost nothing on your phone.

@eccentricShaft @kop316 Even though there was a great progress there, I don't think OnePlus 6 has received as much attention when it comes to system integration as Librem 5 or even PinePhones did. I'd even dare to say that there's still a somewhat noticeable difference in that regard between PureOS and other distros - but I may be slightly biased ;)
