I'm on eOS, so this specific thing will be a non-issue.
I already have an old dumbphone as backup. It might actually get some use going forward. Installing Linux on my current main phone may be in order.
Another thing I'm thinking of is potentially combining the dumbphone with a tiny laptop, say 10-12 inch. We used to have this category of device in the early 2010s. With today's manufacturing it could be made to fit into a large coat pocket or purse. Need to look up if anyone is making these at this time.
GPD Win?
Or you can get a handheld like Steamdeck and you can use it for both portable gaming and on-the-go computing.
Yeah something like this! Apparently there are quite a few, from handheld-gaming-device to full on "laptop.zip" devices. Let the requirements gathering start 8)
My eeepc still works. That PC is like a toughbook.
Isn't eOS still android?
yes, but this change only affects certified Android devices (ie, ones that run software that Google put their blessings on), and /e/OS is squarely an uncertified (and Google-free) Android fork
