Raspberry Pi 4 + Konstakang LineageOS TV
I think it will come for RPI 5 too but as for now there’s onli for the 4
I work for a small 2 people company, we recently switched to Infomaniak and there are a couple of things that need improvement, mainly the support for a better lite mode in Linux: they provide a WebDav connection but it’s a bit slow, even if workable.
On the positive side, we got also a custom domain for the mail box and website that was quite cheap and easy to set up. And the fact that’s all FOSS is great
I believe that the price is reasonable overall: it has good specs and now that FP is an established brand you know it won’t go out of business and support will last. /e/OS has become good enough lately to be reliable to daily drive (it requires some initial adjustment, but nothing to be worried about).
Also, they are phones that withhold their value in the secondary market: a used FP3+ on ebay costs more than 400€ and it had a launch price of 439€, so you can easily sell them for a good price if you ever change your mind about owning one.
The only thing that makes me hesitant to buy one is the fact that now the EU is pushing a lot of consumer friendly laws, like mandatory USB-C, replaceable batteries, extended software support and so on… So in two or three years the smartphone market might offer more high-end products that are long lasting and have a more accessible price tag. It only depends on how much time can you wait.

I use Librera every day: the user interface looks a bit outdated but has support for any format known to man and a ton of features (and I mean A TON)
First of all I was joking, as I know that selling your friends’ personal data without thier consent is not only immoral but also ILLEGAL in all free countries. If you, for some reason, need this to be be clarified, I do not endorse giving away other people’s personal data.
Second: when my father found two boxes of cigarettes in my bedroom when I was 13, he made me smoke all of them in one sitting. I never smoked again.
Shock therapy works sometimes, so there’s your logic kid.
- Create an IG account with a burner email and join the chat
- Sell all other member’s data to advertisement, scam telephone services, mailing lists, etc… subscribe all of them to newsletters from amazon and pornsites (or just wait for all of that to happen naturally)
- Wait for someone to bring this up
- “I told you, we should move to Signal”
- Bring everyone over
- Win
I stopped using /e/OS last year and switched to CalyxOS.
The problem I had comes probably from the fact that /e/ tries to cover as many phones as possible (almost 230 as of now) without having a big enough testing pool, so stuff would break constantly even on the “officially supported” devices. And when you pointed out your problem on their forum, the answer you met was frequently something like “the problem is in your phone model, we can’t do a lot about it”.
Calyx instead supports only Pixel phones and a couple others, including the FP4, it’s always tested for good (they have both a stable and a beta branch you can easily switch between) and their android and microG versions are usually more up to date.
Oh, and the Calyx community is one on the nicest and most helpful on the planet
Writing from a 3 years old 4a running CalyxOs: the phone is a perfect choice if you want a small sized phone with a 3.5mm jack and that gets constant updates. The camera might be a little better but I don’t take many pictures so I don’t mind.
