After a couple weeks of daily-driving Sailfish OS on the new Jolla Phone 2 (2026), here's my take on the European, privacy-first alternative to the Android and iOS duopoly. Design, hardware, camera...
The implication is there are only two options (iPhone or Android), this is the third option.* Obviously its not that black and white, with GrapheneOS, lineage, /e/, etc.
just a bit of a correction: they are talking about os-es and currently on the smartphone market it is just ios and android (the alternatives are android too) and this is a linux distro
What are the other two?

It’s a Linux, but not fully open-source.
PostmarketOS is the pure option, and needs our attention.
Ah okay, I thought it meant the are two other good phone brands to choose from. 😅
FairPhone?
Yeah that’s one. Friend had one of those, she wasn’t satisfied with it. 😐
Why?
I have FP6, /e/os, works without a single issue,
Can’t remember, it was a few years ago. It was one of the earlier models, so probably something wrong with only those.
