What has been the issue with librem 5? It seems to me that they delivered what they promised and they continually keep releasing updates and upstream commits

Delay delay not giving people refunds. There is lots wrong with librem and we'll never preorder anything from them ever.

Have you tried actually using it? It is an awful experience, the pine phone, despite worse specs, performed significantly better, but neither is ready for use as a reliable daily communication device.

Damn you, Voice of Truth! Curse you for ruining my dreams and crushing my hope.

When will I be able to get a daily driver Linux phone that doesn't suck?
