That Liberux phone looks pretty cool, though I'm not sure how Linux apps would work. Does it just use Android apps? I can't imagine too many Linux programs would work well on a phone, both because of the size as the screen as well as battery usage/background sleep.

    Linux phone OSes can usually run Android apps through a VM but generally you want to avoid it for performance and privacy reasons.

    There are apps available for mobile Linux that are optimized for small screens and touch. Just not a ton understandably due to low userbase.
