can an average person use a linux phone?
I’ve been reading some articles about mobile Linux and many of them state one must be an “advanced user” or that the software isn’t secure. How true is this?
I already use Linux on my laptop, but I’m not a software developer or anything like that. Would I be able to slap a new OS onto an old Android phone and be on my way, or would I run into problems?
Can they? Probably. Would they want to? Most certainly not. You lose a lot of functionality that you’re used to, and simple things become complicated. If you’re an average person, meaning you don’t really care that much about privacy, and you don’t really enjoy tinkering with things, then a Linux phone is just going to be a source of constant frustration.
