Welp, everyone buy a Google Pixel 3a from eBay and install Ubuntu Touch I guess
Does Ubuntu Touch work on the 3a? That was my last phone, but after it was no longer supported by Graphene I bought a 7a. I don't really like Ubuntu but would like to experiment with a Linux phone.
It works, but its not really usable as a daily driver. None of the browsers render sites correctly and I couldnt make phone calls, but that might be a carrier thing on my end.
Seems ok for me, since the 3a is an old phone, mostly kept around to move this one group to Signal/Molly.
The Pixel 3a apparently can run any Linux Mobile distro or custom ROM, or at least most of them. At the very least, Ubuntu Touch says it's officially supported
