If so, what’s your experience with both the phone and the company? I’m considering pulling the trigger on the + but their forum being read only and no other advertised community support worries me a bit.

I’m typing this on one right now! It can be janky and there’s quirks to get used to, but I love how my phone is Linux and I can hack and build on it like my computer, and use the same software. Being able to SSH into my own phone is nice
Thanks so much for your reply, I really appreciate it. I think based on your and the other comment regarding the experience with the phone, I’m going to give Linux more years to figure out how to provide a usable phone experience. I last used sailfich and Ubuntu touch a couple of years ago and it sounds like no real progress has been made.
I love tinkering with Linux but I want my phone to phone and I don’t want to have to solve problems to do that.
Also, furilabs never bothered responding to my trouble ticket and with a phone that will most definitely will have issues, I don’t trust them to help when its needed.
A shame but you guys really saved me a huge chunk of money and I thank you both for that.
You can also do a lot of that in Termux (not a VM), though without root access the options may be limiting at times.

For example, it’s funny, but since all my music is on my phone’s SD card, why not also run a Navidrome server on it? Unfortunately, Android doesn’t have a firewall, so be careful about software that listens on all interfaces by default. Especially if you have IPv6.
Absolutely the most important Android app.
