@Bronstein_Tardigrade You probably know about GrapheneOS and have a reason not to use it? If not, it might be worth looking at. (Buying an out of date used Pixel phone, required for Graphene, isn’t expensive.)
I do not live in the US and Pixel phones are virtually non existent here. Unless I can load it on Samsung, Huawei, Vivo, or OPPO, it’s not of much use. I have seen Harmony for offer on a few Huawei phones out of my price range, so have to wait on more market saturation.
@Bronstein_Tardigrade .ml being Mali? Do any of the global mail order places deliver there? (Not suggesting you use them, just wondering. Amazon-australia, for instance, sometimes doesn’t deliver to New Zealand. 🙄 )
I’m pretty sure I’ve read recently about a Samsung model that works with linux (can’t find it now of course). Things move pretty quick so it may be different now, but a couple of years ago when I was looking, none of the linux phones worked reliably as _phones_. If you need calling and texting, that’s a problem!
