Description is interesting, but it’s clearly not tomorrow that we’ll have Linux phones for non geeky people.

Still, I hope there is some progress on that side.

Honestly - using Sxmo on a PinePhone Pro is about as hard-core as you can go beyong building your own thing from scratch.

Ubuntu Touch on Pixel 3a, or Sailfish X on a supported device or a Librem 5 with PureOS even is a lot less geeky and more approachable thing.
