Has anyone tried loading KDE Plasma Mobile onto one of these?
The Fairphone team has tried to help with mainline Linux support: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Fairphone_(Gen._6)_(fairphone-fp6)
Is plasma mobile any good?
I haven't had a chance to try it, myself, but the developments on their site looks promising. I've heard it's pretty functional, but it's lacking in battery optimization, and compatible devices.
