        Other options exist, but not so polished. It’s a tough project that apparently needs more support than small FOSS projects can provide, I’ve seen a lot of promising alternatives come and go.

        Hardware/firmware wise, would really like to see open standards like we have for PC bootloaders. EU requiring nonproprietary bootloaders on phones would be a real step forward.

            It’s confirmed coming to Motorola hardware next year. With more funding and institutional support I’m sure they could assemble a larger pool of devices that meet their requirements

    Wait until Le Pen or Bardella comes into power and remake the deal with American tech oligarchs, undoing Macron’s push for strategic autonomy. As long as the right in France isn’t killed, any attempt of decoupling will only be coupled back to US, because fascists have internationalise their ideas and coordination.

      Nothing against Macs intended here, but why would anyone say that in this case?

      It’d be like an anti-fast food movement where someone suggests Burger King as an alternative to McDonald’s. It wouldn’t make any sense for the goal.

    Hmm, it would be interesting if all these governments switching to Linux would make their own distros.
