Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

    not as as a distraction machine.

    Yeah I’ve got a steam deck for that.

    How about connectivity/ usability? Have you had any issues with particular apps or functionality?

      Nope everything works. I have one profile with play services for my banking apps, but everything else runs in my daily profile that has no play services and no GPS, just the barebones and all apps installed via Obtainium.

      I switched to FOSS apps for everything really.

          It’s good enough for me, but will only be supported for about 10 months.

          Your best bet is to get a 9 or 10 at this time.

            I’ve been looking at a new phone myself, and also came to the pixel + graphene solution after doing some research. Best bang for your buck, performance-wise vs any phone capable of alternate OS (even if it is android based).
