@jbowen@mast.hpc.social I'm not sure what the answer is, but I suspect it strongly depends on your position on privacy, so it might be worth clarifying where you stand on that. (like, in one interpretation of this question the answer could be a stock Pixel, if one considers Android as Linux, but I'm assuming that's not what you were going for)

@diazona@techhub.social Fair point. I'm typing this on a Pixel 10, stock Android, seriously considering GrapheneOS (I've played with it in the past and was too scared to take the plunge for my daily driver). Privacy is quite the rabbit hole. With this question it's secondary to the user experience of running a "vanilla" Linux kernel with @phosh@social.phosh.mobi or some other mobile UI. I guess one way to think about it is comparing the experience of Linux on a phone to Linux on a laptop. Are we in a 1998 level of usability?
