I've been getting away from apps installed from the play store over the years. This is one of the 2 remaining apps I have that I paid for. This is appalling behavior my Google. I can't wait until I can make a real Linux based phone my daily driver.
I would love this as well (Linux phone). Sadly not likely to happen on wider scale and nice hardware.
This would be really nice, yes. Then we could just use the same tools we configure our computers with on our phones too.
I had seen them and perhaps it's time to give them a go. Are you (or anyone else) using it, and how is it?
