Fairphone should focus on helping the Linux options move along, no need waste resources on GOS, just another android ROM

Long term android should die off in place of Linux but its a long road

Have UT running on a Nord phone, they have made good strides over the years, appreciate their dedication

Agreed that Fairphone should do more but in all fairness, they already do some, at least. They sell their phones with /e/OS (French de-Googled Android) and it's easy to unlock the boot loader. I'm typing this from my Fairphone 3+ with /e/OS and I had Ubuntu Touch installed for years.
