I have absolutely no faith in this project whatsoever, there is a 99% chance itll fail like all Linux phones and tbh they all deserve to. Not a single mobile Linux OEM has even the slightest idea what the average person wants, hell im a highly technical Linux enthusiast and it doesn't even do what I want. The average person wants:

1. Long battery life
2. Fast charging
3. A good screen
4. Decent performance
5. A good camera
6. Software good enough to tie everything together in a cohesive experience (this one especially they lack in)

Meanwhile more technical people (such as myself) want:

1. Good security (both hardware level security and software level security)
2. A relockable bootloader (with it being locked from shipping)
3. Extended software support (including firmware and microcode updates)
4. The ability to seamlessly work on multiple different sim networks
5. Longevity (I should not need to get a new one once every three years)
6. Reparability
7. Software that can accommodate technical usecases without falling apart

Meanwhile Linux phones:

1. Can be a portable programming station (why???? No genuenly why would anyone want to do this???? Just get a cheap Thinkpad)
2. Can run desktop software (ok thats neat I guess but not neat when all the software is optimized for desktops, the downsides to this completely overshadow any tiny benefit this may provide)
3. Have support for multiple mobile Linux distros (congratulations, you have multiple choices and they all suck)
4. Have support multiple WMs/DEs (and they're all either under maintained, not maintained at all, or they just suck)
5. Have extensive software customization (its a phone, why on earth would I want that???)
6. Are cheap (sometimes, also I can just get a cheap used Google Pixel 7)
7. Run faster (except not when you take into account the significantly worse hardware)
