@Feral_3D@mastodon.social well, the "ideal" OS depends on your needs. If you need a "working" phone, right now Android is the only option. I'm personally running postmarketOS on it because I choose independence from Google, but a lot of stuff I just can't do yet. Non-exhaustive list: - any form of calling - banking - maps navigation via GPS - non-blurry photos (but colors are getting better!) - "safe" updates (rollback if something broke / got interrupted) I wrote a blogpost about it: https://blog.allpurposem.at/linux-on-my-phone
