CalyxOS, the Android-based, privacy-focused operating system, is back after nearly a year-long pause following the founder and tech lead’s departure.

I'm in the same boat. They suggest Seedvault, which I haven't tried yet. I'll do the factory reset when I don't crucially need my phone, I'll take it as an opportunity to declutter a bit. I don't need much for a functional setup. The painful part will be manually re-entering the config for my WebDAV server. Definitely not ideal, though.

I've never had any luck with SeedVault, but I'm sure it's me. If a dumbphone is able to support Signal, that would really be all I would need.

Sounds like Punkt MP02 which has its own Signal client, but I’ve never seen any real feedback on it

If they had any interest in making a 5G capable model, (they don't - i asked) i would have one of these already :(
