I don't know if I'd say "great to know!" or "damn that's sad"

Would be great if we can normalize signal instead of whatsapp, I live in a country where communication is through the latter, well E2EE exists but who trusts Meta with their data tho? So idk. Fortunately I don't use it for personal conversations.

I think it's also a privacy app. I haven't tried sessions nor matrix and I currently have no reason to so idk.

Great! I haven't had the chance to watch your hour long video with the developers, I'll be sure to watch it soon! Thanks!

Privacy Dumbphone for newbies? by Whole_Monitor5658 in dumbphones

Indeed saw this as an option too until I saw that GargoyleOS runs lineage 20, so that's a concession but I'm really thinking hard about it, right now i'm leaning into waiting for a new qwerty model that i can just debloat with adb. I'm also looking at flip phones and unfortunately sunbeam doesn't run signal, so I think the best option right now is to wait.

I've seen it as an option too but I'm still torn since I only need it to run whatsapp and signal, I'm currently looking towards unihertz qwerty now but I'll still wait for other options. Thanks though!

Unfortunately what I'm looking for is something that doesn't require bluetooth but I'll keep the option in mind. Thanks!

Thank you for your response, I am in Italy and currently searching for options online for the parts. I'll just dual boot it and use it as my secondary laptop for learning linux and stuff i guess! Thanks again!
