So, new thread!
Just curious whether anybody out there has tried Replicant (a free replacement
for Android): https://replicant.us/
There are also replacements for Android apps: https://www.f-droid.org/
I am still in the research stages myself. I did have to use an Android
smartphone for a while for work, but I have since abandoned both job and
phone, and gone back to my dumbphone. (All that I really really need are
unlimited calls and text; but I have a feeling that not having a smartphone
will eventually become not only a social liability, but indeed a stigma.)
Anyway, so I am shopping round for the right phone that I can get cheap, and
hack to install a free (as in freedom) OS. And it goes without saying that I
would prefer to install TDE-Trinity for my desktop, but I don't know how well
it runs with touch screens.
I've been following the threads on phones and other devices, but thus far
nobody seems to have touched on my specific interests. I'm open to all
suggestions.

currently, jolla makes nonw of its sruff
available in the u.s.; no idea
if this will change.
Yes, but you wanted to have something on a mobile device and there is the
open source part which is available everywhere and on many more devices.
Specifically regarding Gemini PDA you have this statement:
