2026 - year of the Linux Phone :D

I'm gonna try to install chimera linux on my fairphone. then I could use phosh as a window manager and use waydroid so I could have android apps! time to see how crazy that is.

Update: I did a bit of research, and chimera does support aarch64(the architecture of the fairphone 4) and it seems pretty doable, the postmarketos wiki says most features are supported, so we'll see!
