tried pmos with plasma mobile but the browsers were buggy because of my SOC having bad graphics acceleration support in the mainline kernel
I use postmarketos with phosh. It’s kind of viable, but it has some infrequent bugs. For example sometimes, quite rarely, the call menu may freeze after the call and not respond to touches until the reboot. The camera doesn’t work at all. But there are positive aspects, an ordinary Linux terminal and the usual convenient console programs. :)
It has sufficient list of programs: browsers (I use firefox), ebook readers, fractal (matrix), telegram, maps, that works good enough on mobile at least for my daily use.
Maemo was BAE
But we have maemo liste now. Too bad it only supports a few devices (and x86!)
Theres also sailfish which is based on meego which was supposed to be Nokia’s successor to maemo. Sailfish is quite usable and has a decent android app layer, however it only works on certain phones and you need to pay for a license to use android apps
fwiw: it was viable when i had the first android released to the public; it was an HTC and with debian.
No, none of them are. I tried 2-3 versions of it, none is good. However, Android on the other hand, which is also linux-based, is good. Go for Murena’s e/OS, or LineageOS.
How are all the AOSP-based OSes, like for instance GrapheneOS, not Linux distros?
