Ubuntu Touch still is unusable almost three months after installing it. Swipe gestures barely work and only register, much less work properly, like 15% of the time, it's slow, lacks privacy, security, or strong sandboxing, has minimal app selection, crashes frequently, no good browser, etc. I mean Graphene, Calyx, Lineage, OmniROM, GlassROM, or almost any other ROM thrashes it in every respect. I hope it gets better but it is just a horrible choice as it stands now.

@ThreeBadgersInATrenchcoat I really wish it was further along as I love foss and Linux.

I'd love to jump ship to a nice Linux phone but they aren't there yet. 😕

@Wetrix @mistermonster AOSP is just Android Open Source Project, it's just what every Android version ever is based on. It is not private, as its still stock android. Android as a whole loosely uses some Linux components and is sort of based on Linux in one way or another. If you're looking for mobile privacy, security, and openness, use GrapheneOS, which also uses AOSP as it's base, inheriting the Linux kernel.
