Yes, but I want to emphasize that it's not a lack of skill or focus of the Linux phone developers. Calling is exceptionally complex to implement if you have to reverse engineer all drivers and the used hardware is closed. Most of the other stuff on the software level such as menus, apps, browsing etc. is "basic computer stuff".
I get that it’s hard to make, but it is the bare minimum anyone expects from a phone. Not having it is a bad look.
Calling is being used less and less. I think the main feature required is to run apps and connect to the internet.
@Fizz @oxysis Agreed, after #SaltTyphoon, no one should be using legacy unencrypted calls and SMS for personal communication. A data-only SIM with instant messaging apps for calls and messages can work in 2025.
