My phone's just bitten the dust and now I need to look for a new one again.

Thought I'd test the waters and see what kinds of phones people on here are using nowadays and what for, what features set them apart if any etc

Bonus points if anyone's managed to get mainline linux running on them either via KVM or bare metal

Edit: Thanks for everyone who talked about their choices of phone, I am now writing this on a fairphone 4 and am quite happy with it so far.

6s (2015) here. I know that perfect phone doesn’t exist and mine is getting older with every minute now, battery is a joke even after one replacement few years ago..

..yet for all those years I have trouble finding any replacement, and I am open for any direction that will just feel fine (at least), somehow nothing does.

To be honest, I shouldn’t be answering this question while having like 15 apps installed, freshest one is proton mail.

Two times I saw unsupported message, both with Lemmy apps, one was something on testflight and the second one was Arctic — that’s why I appreciate Voyager even more..

I see, my biggest concern is honestly Safari. Not having an up to date browser could mean that soon websites start breaking.

I am not browsing that much on my phone I guess, never had problems with websites tho. Sometimes there is a gap here and there but this is just adblock doing its thing..

Plus, there is really not that much to browse on internet now anyway.
