What a coincidence, I was planning to buy a Linux phone.
Any recommendations?
None of them seem very good, mobile Linux hasn't been around for very long so the ecosystem is very immature. But tome it seems like your best bet would be buying a Volla phone or a Fairphone with Ubuntu Touch pre-installed. I don't know how well waydroid works though.
lol people have been trying to make Linux on mobile since at least the N95 18 years ago. Android is the only success story and that's not really "mobile Linux" in the same way that most people think of it. The fact that Android is running on Linux is almost completely hidden from apps.
