* #Pine64 (@pine64eu)

* #Framework @frameworkcomputer)

* #MNT Research (@mntmn)

* #Purism (@purism)

Did you ever have a look at the excellent #documentation of #Purism products?

One of the products of Purism is the #Librem5. The Librem 5 is a #Linux phone that runs the #PureOS operating system.

This phone is built up from the bottom to provide #privacy and software #freedom. No #surveillance by the manufacturer, free and #opensource (#FOSS) is their standard.

I use a Librem 5 as my daily phone.
