    Linux phone OSes mostly run through hardware abstraction? That’s new info to me.

      Most besides Nura (postmarketOS) use the Android kernel and build a Linux userspace on top.

      See Halium

      If you look at what hardware works on Nura vs on another distro using halium you’ll understand why; it’s a lot of effort to write drivers for every component in a modern phone.
