Way back when, I had a Palm Pixie, which ran WebOS. While it wasn’t FOSS, if you turned on developer mode, you would have full terminal access to the Linux system it was running.
I think HP eventually made it open source and now LG uses it for their TVs. But that phone’s OS was one of the best ones I had seen at the time.
WebOS, PalmOS, and Sailfish OS are the only mobile OSes I've ever not disliked. I wish Jolla seemed a little more trustworthy so I could switch to Sailfish as my main phone os
The Palm Pre 2 was, by far, the best phone I have ever used in my life. Then HP abandoned it, like they did everything else worthwhile.
It's crazy how hp made great computers, made the best calculators on the market, bought the best mobile device manufacturer, and then were just like "wait let's make awful printers and computers instead"
They abandoned the consumer market for business consulting and enterprise solutions (both of which, by the way, they suck at). They did this, because it makes more money. After all, if you're going to suck at everything, whole-ass it, don't half-ass it.
