From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I happen to have a Fairphone 4. It's listed as supported, but not with all its features.

Anyone here tried PostmarketOS on Fairphone 4?

I have! I tried it over a year ago, and LTE wasn't working so I gave up. According to this it's still not functioning :( https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Fairphone_4_(fairphone-fp4)

From what I read on the wiki, they're mostly testing the mainline kernel. I wonder how the device support would be with vendor downstream kernel.
