    I gotta donate more to postmarket os to help fill in the usability gaps.

    Their funding recently increased by 25% from 2025 to 2026!

    This is a bit unfair. He installed a different OS than the one the phone came with. The title suggest something else.

    Installing some other half-done OS on any other android phone will often get the same nasty results.

    This video makes it seem like Linux phones suck ass. And he is absolutely not helping. Thanks for being part of the problem, not the solution…

    Review seems more for entertainment purposes; fellow seems to know more about Linux but chooses to take potshots instead.

      That’s kind of his thing though. He does the same for corporate products too (recently, see Macbook Neo being the Macbook No)

    Wait again?

    This one also has a super negative clickbait title but everything he showed was actually functional and was shown in a better light than even the early days linux phone enthusiasts would ever try to convey. Fucking bizarre youtuber, this guy.

    That was surprisingly hilarious. I mean the guys normally funny but this one made me laugh out loud several times

    The biggest issue I have with PostmarketOS is their documentation for new users is horrendous.

    I tried installing it on a 2012 Nexus 7 and couldn’t get past the jargon.

    Tbh I really disliked how he made fun of it here, but I watched the Ubuntu / fairphone video he also posted and that really got me intrigued.
