LPT: If you're not a fan of where Android or iOS is going but have to use one, buy a used phone to avoid giving money directly to ill-intentioned manufacturers. Then use some of the savings to support Linux Mobile Distro development!

We need to show a market demand for repairable phones and unlocked bootloaders.

I really really want to buy a linux phone but they aren't much options available. I can't afford librem or pinephone sadly

Pocophone F1 was sold like crazy, at least in my country, and I just got my brother's and I'll be flashing it this weekend.
