It’s pretty much volunteers reinventing all code to run a phone. That’s a lot of hurdles. But I totally get it, especially the camera is what I think is hilariously bad
Yeah that definitely made me giggle a bit. That front facing camera is actually terrible. I think it would be pretty cool as a concept, but it’s always been a bit too expensive of a gamble in my opinion.
Yeah same. I’ve tinkered with Graphene OS on an old Pixel 4 of mine, but that’s about the most I’ve messed with mobile operating systems. Unfortunately, a phone is one of those things that I absolutely need to work flawlessly and not have to think about.
Interesting. I’ve never looked much into the Pinephone other than just knowing it exists. I didn’t actually expect it to be as bad as this.

It’s not for everyone. They already announced a new pinephone, so we’ll see what it imporves. Most improvement comes from software anyways.
I don’t have one, I don’t have the time to tinker with it, but I think the project is cool!
