Huh, well that’s good to know! I might buy my laptop from System 76 since they are based in the USA instead of Tuxedo. As Tuxedo is based in Germany, the shipping cost is higher, and it will take longer for me to receive my laptop. If I were based in the EU, Tuxedo would be a no-brainer choice. As far as Pine64; After reading about their smartphone offerings, I’m a bit leery of committing to them as an option. It’s more for mavericks in the Linux space. I am more of an average user who can follow instructions, my knowledge is not a deep well and I could very well get over my head quickly. I still have to pay off my current device anyway; once that’s done, I could make a choice on what my next smartphone might be once it reaches EOL.
System76 also makes great hardware, I personally prefer Tuxedo because I’m from Germany and because they offer better screens. Linux for phones is still pretty WIP, phones like pine show a Linux phone can be done, they are not trying to compete with android/ios. What phone are you using? If you have a pixel you could, when it becomes EOL install (or let someone else install for you) postmarketOS, a Linux based OS for extending the life span of phones.
