Re: Eelo OS : the Non- Googlized Android Alternative.
 
So why Eelo over the LineagOS microG fork it is based on?
I already use Lineage w/microG on a tablet to get those things like transit card NFC refill, and web browsing that I can't do in Maemo5/N900.
Seriously I just would like a good GNU userland, x, and pulseaudio or even ALSA vs the kludge Google made with android. Effing closed blob drivers.

I think the /e/ project just needs some time to sort the problems out...

The copyright thing seems pretty convincing though. That combined with the zealous moderation/censorship on communication channels really is not encouraging.

I do not see any zealous moderation/censorship for example here: https://community.e.foundation/t/e-c...eage-fans/1359

But I'm not an advocate of /e/, just mediate information ;)
