Honestly, iPhone is already there in shittyland. You need to jailbreak to do it, which you can host install GraphineOS or root your android easier for the same effect.

We need a 3rd primer mobile OS option, but won't get one since the money always enshittifies these things.

Ubuntu Touch

The most annoying part is the number of good mobile OSs we have already lost over the years to these two; Symbian, BB10, Windows Phone, and WebOS come to mind just off the top of my head. Not to mention the projects that have struggled for traction like Mozilla OS and Ubuntu Touch.

Edit: I misremembered, it was called Firefox OS, not Mozilla OS.

I still have my palm pre and boot it up now and then even though it will only connect to wifi, it was a wonderful phone and OS. I'm just so fucking mad at how that all went down and every time I turn on my LG TV and see WebOS it legit hurts

Synergy was magical!

Maemo/meego was better than all those IMO. It still half lives on in sailfish but had Nokia not been burned it could've been a true Goliath that could compete.

Jolla looks somewhat interesting, it's a shame they produce so few devices.
