Comment on [Discussion] Would you buy a Steam smart phone?
nfreak@lemmy.ml 7 hours agoYeah this is the important bit to me. Valve does good work and contributes to FOSS, sure, but I’m not going to blindly follow everything they do. Right now the Linux phone space just flat out isn’t viable for daily drivers. If Valve are the first ones to really address this, cool! But I’m not going to put them on a pedestal over any other options.

Considering that they are the only pro-Linux company in a position to start delivering to my country, that might just be my only option.
So, as long as they let me install custom stuff without restriction and have enough Linux support for the hardware they choose, they don’t even need to do any special repairability stuff for me to happily give them my money.

Oh for sure. They’re no saints but they’re very far from the worst option out there, and they’ve been making some massive contributions to the linux space in general.
