@linuxphones l was wondering about switching over to linux with my smart phone. Would it work equally well like Android ??
It will not work remotely as well as android.
Just to make absolutely sure we’re all on the same page here: You do know that Linux on a smartphone isn’t a simple matter of “switching over”, right?
@Cevilia no, l don’t. I wish to learn about the difference in experience from those who are using Linux on their smartphones.
Nope.
Just for comparison, here’s someone with a similar question that makes sense, asks detailed questions based on their knowledge and also responds to people in the comments.
If you’re talking about switching your current phone to Linux, yeah, idk.
But, if you’re willing to purchase a new device, then the Jolla C2 or the Sony Xperia 10 III apparently run SailfishOS decently.
(I recently ordered an Xperia 10 III from Jolla Devices with SailfishOS. I was hoping it could become my main phone…)
Isn’t sailfish subscription based? How much do yiu pay for it?
What benefits are you looking to achieve? Basically are you just really interested in getting linux to run on your phone (In a can it run DOOM kind of way)? Or are there specific uses / etc you’re focused on?
TLDR I suspect what you really want is just an open source android OS, not linux persay.
No, why would it?
