This thread is copy pasta Are you trying to ruin this phones reputation by shilling it like a bunch of jews? Is requesting 700$ for it not enough based puri.jew?
Its on a discount faggot And considering how much they overprice their other products it may be well over 700$ if it ever comes out
Alexander Cox
Something about trannies and something about the jews. At least that´s what I got from the last thread about this phone

It wasn't yesterday, but it is now.

I can't help but feel that this was made by someone paid to influence the market away from demanding basic functionality from their devices. You want a user-replacable battery and 3.5mm TRS? LOL! Might as well be asking for 15-pin DIN connectors!
Noah Hill
might consider it after a few months
Mason Sanchez
Definitely considering it only after about 2-3 years pass when prices go down, needed revisions are made and the software works better over time. It'll definitely by then be worthwhile after moving away from Android, and of course one of the best parts is that it's notch-less
Jace Butler
You know it's a very real possibility that it will never pick up enough steam to warrant a successor.
Robert Perez
Jow Forums's dream phone is no phone
Carson Moore
Why should I buy this over a Sony XA2 and install lineage os?
John Fisher
IT BETTER NOT HAVE SYSTEM D
Gabriel Rodriguez
I unironically want a brick phone so it also fulfils the purpose of conceal carry
Nicholas Baker
You can install any distro you want

>Monero cryptocurrency clients no thanks, shitcoins are shit
Ayden Young
i'm worried that's the case, and bit after cambridge analytica 2.0 will happen and will have a larger impace on public opinion, and these phones will then be highly sought after.

Why not just flash LineageOS without the system apps on a V20 or something? Better build quality. Better specs. SD card support. Actually replaceable battery. FOSS alternatives to everything you need for mobile computing.
LineageOS is still fundamentally rooted in Google's Android code and doesn't address the issue of binary blobs and undocumented hardware components. For Librem 5, Purism is writing a lot of code to make a mobile user interface work and they are upstreaming all of it to established FOSS/GNU/Linux projects (e.g. GNOME/GTK+ is benefiting heavily from this work). This will only make it easier for future non-Android, GNU/Linux phones to have software support and lower development costs. They're also working on creating what is essentially an ARM-based binary blob free computing platform. This will give us more options for future phones not just those from Purism, and also for future ARM-based laptops without Intel ME/AMD PSP backdoors in the hardware.

>Gentoo >On your phone Cant wait to not be able to make a phonecall because I need to recompile the Call app since I left out the GTK3 flag

>Gnome is benefiting Then I cant support them.

top fucking kek
pathetic Jow Forums
Sebastian Morris
Was this made in a real thread?
Leo White
How is this different to Android where you miss calls because an update to the ROM can only be fixed by reflashing the entire OS?
Luke Stewart
I'm probably going to upgrade to this phone from my old Samsung S5
James Roberts
Fuck that, do you realize how annoying it would be to use linux on a phone how cramped it would feel and how awkward putting in commands would be without a keyboard. Mate just put lineage on it if anything that should be a Jow Forums material phone operating system. Hell why do you need some FrEe SoFtWaRe just to make a few phone calls. Hell I would say different about desktop but really it's just a phone in the end mate.
