"You mean, GNU/Linux phones, Librem 5 and Pinephone?"
not yet to diminish them who is build these Amazing tools/devices but I need to see it yet in real life
hell even if you want to buy them, they literally often stock out in certain areas
and we not counting technical expertise to operate the devices
Librem 5 is in stock, and it's my daily driver. These phones are niche, because in discussion like this one, everyone is constantly saying that it's impossible to escape the duopoly and we're doomed.
these phone is not niche because they are niche, but because they are sucks
if there are alternative that magically better than Google/Apple ecosystem. people would instantly switch
You don't need told people to switch, just need to prove it
They're not comparable to an iPhone but good enough to be a daily driver for technical people like the HN audience. Yet the latter never even mentions it saying there are no options, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45589096

A quad-core ARM A53 just isn't doing that device any favors, even for a Linux phone. If only they had included at least a couple of ARM A76 cores or something.
