HarmonyOS has an open source version as well and aren’t an evil entity trying to take over the global internet. https://openharmony.cn/
I mean, if it works I'm for it. I fucking hate android tbh.
I wish I could just have a phone with debian or something.
Funnily enough there is a Debian derivative for phones. However it only supports the devices listed here, pretty much the same as other mobile distros like postmarketOS and Ubuntu touch.
Yeah, I actually have one with postmarketos and it's fun but still so many features are missing and the battery drains sooo fast lol
Is there a Huawei with open harmony by default, or do I have to do the install myself?
You'd have to do the install yourself and buy direct from Huawei. I don't know if Huawei still provides OEM unlock codes, but as of 2018 they were charging $60 for the code.
