    Does it work well? Do you have more to say, maybe a blog? It looks like I can get one as used on a local market, I might want to give it a try.

      You mean NixOS? Well, it’s definitely not as polished as pmOS, but most things do work. My gf is using it as an LTE-enabled music player, and I’m using it to ssh into my servers when I’m out and about.

      It required some hackery to get GPS and the modem to work, but then it’s mostly similar to pmOS. I need to find some time to sit down, clean up my config and publish it somewhere, but life’s main quest line is preventing any side projects rn.

      If you can get it for not too much money, I’d definitely spring for it. Even if you find it doesn’t suit your daily needs (it probably doesn’t just yet), it will at least be a fun toy for playing with mobile linux.

        Is calling voLTE audio working yet? I have the OP6T and have postmarketos edge installed but last time I updated it a few weeks ago voLTE still wasn’t working with audio in the calls. My last hold out to start using it as a daily driver.

          No, but regular calls (via 3G networks) work-ish; the only problem is that you can’t switch the audio output, i.e. hands-free calls are not a thing.
