Nice! I'm on the market for a Linux cellphone since CalyxOS is now dead. No hurry, I have plenty of time to decide, but all practical information I can gather is welcome.

A very thoughtful review.

But once again, this is not a primary daily driver review. Which I've been doing for 5 years. I did a lot of commenting in this thread if you want to know.

All the Xperia devices have working fingerprint readers btw.

WA-notifications can be enabled btw.

Oh, and Jolla should be pronounced more like in holler - she pronounces it more like in roller.

I'd have pronounced it like La Jolla, CA to be fair lol. Gonna go check out your posts on daily driving linux phone now!

Did you ever check Ubuntu touch or any other that may or may not exist?

Is it possible to set payment methods?

She mentions Aurora Store as a viable thing. I don't understand the nitty gritty but am I to assume that because the phone isn't Android, that it can bypass the verification stuff that Google is putting in place?
