A small community project is building immutable Fedora images for tablets and phones.

The mobile Linux space is more active than most people realize. Projects like postmarketOS, Ubuntu Touch, and KDE Plasma Mobile have been chipping away at the idea that your phone or tablet has to run something made by Google or Apple.

And while none of them are household names yet, they are picking up real interest from power users who want more control over their hardware. Of course, most people stick with Android or iOS, and that is fine.

Both platforms are mature, well-supported, and not going anywhere. But for the ones who want something genuinely open and free of platform lock-in, things are getting better.

    We need the hardware groups to be built up. New Open Source OEM’s made.

    That and new unionized IP Provider companies. Anything that goes back to the hands of the people is a good thing

    Also this sounds amazing for Fedora to come to phones. Want to see Linux Mint, Pop OS Cosmic, and Bazzite to get same treatment eventually
