> Do you have anything to back that up?

I'm saying you need to back up the claim that they refuse to work with FLOSS on principle, if you want to make it.

> This is extremely dishonest.

??? If you want to build a phone that works in a particular way, you have to do the work of finding suppliers and parts and such that fit your design goals. It's not someone else's responsibility to supply it to you in the exact way you want.



It's easy: If there was a good hardware with open specs, FLOSS drivers would be written quickly from the community. Case in point: Pinephone.


And yet there isn't, so if you want such hardware you must do the work to make it.
