It's on 20forbeers as well, but I hate side loading anything on my phone anymore.

I have never attempted that before. Is it difficult to do on an android device?

Nope. Just have to turn OFF allow only authorized apps (or whatever it's called now) then put it on our sdcard or phone memory goto file manager and click on the apk and it'll install itself.

Sounds pretty good. I don't usually bring my laptop when I travel. Im going to try it on my ipad and
see how it runs.

What sounds pretty good? And what is "it"? You addressed your message to "All"; also, did you intend to quote something? Without quoting and posting to "All", this looks like a new post.

Thanks. That is good to know.

I understood his message because "it" is in the subject (Terminator).

What does "piss with my phone" mean? And you don't need to root an
Android

I've never heard that stupid lingo either... and not sure either.
<SHRUG>

I had not heard it before, either, but based on context I took it to mean
that he doesn't tinker around with his phone any more... that he just
leaves it stock with no side-loading or jail-breaking, etc.

What this hobby needs are some vids that show Terminator in action, accessing BBSes, to illustrate what the whole experience looks like.

I just never bother to buy one of their preloaded phone and none of the phone had
were on the list of phones that you could install it on.

I also looked into a couple of android alternatives a few months ago. As
you found, my fairly recent phone wasn't on the their lists.

I just read something that company that makes Motorola Phone is suppose to be having a phone that runs the GrapheneOS. No release date given of course. Still that would be interesting if they do.

That would certainly be of interest. If they were to do so, it might
convince some of those app maintainers to offer their software outside of
the Google Play store.

Well, interesting, because the stock-ish version of the Fairphone 4 is what I currently have.

So, whenever I next get a new phone (probably not for a while), I'll probably turn it into a Linux phone.

What OS does the stock Fairphone 4 have?

Android.

I'm not sure what a newly-purchased phone would have, but I haven't messed with the OS beyond taking whatever upgrades Fairphone has sent, and it says I'm running Android version 15.

Also, it is pretty stock, for Android, as there's not the layer of crappy applications that come with Samsung phones.
