I don't need games. Music, GPS satnav, WWW, Tusky for Mastodon, various utility apps such as DNS, SSH, 2TB MicroSDXC (a lot of CDs copied as .flac and a few movies, about to pass the 1TB line).
I prefer 3.5mm headphone socket for accurate lip synch, but...
I found a Fairphone 4 with /e/OS already installed, which suggests custom ROMs are OK.No 3.5mm socket, though. If I buy a USB-C adaptor, or buy USB-C headphones, will I get sound synch'd with video?
Any hints, please?
(I'm guessing that I'll need a 2nd phone for banking apps, if it has a custom ROM)

@RupertReynolds #e_os installs on many phones, list here: https://doc.e.foundation/devices
Fairphones are nice, I have a FP3 with /e/os, which does have a 3.5mm jack, and everything woks on it, execept for unfortunate apps using google play integrity api.
Benefit of fairphones is that they are socially and environmentally friendly, and reapairable by you. Another alternative in that direction is shiftphone.

@anderslund Yes I like the repairable/environmental aspect gor everythong I buy recently, and Fairphone fits there, but right now I think Gargoyle is higher up my hitlist. @pluralistic helped me decide to act sooner rather than later.
And I'll look at Shiftphone

@RupertReynolds @pluralistic I'm not sure what you mean by 'gargoyle'? /e/os is degoogled, no google play services og google play store, all FOSS.

@anderslund @pluralistic Sorry, yes. I got in the habit of calling Google "Gargoyle" because it is so unpleasant.

@RupertReynolds @pluralistic Thought so. Then a fairphone or shiftphone would be the perfect combo - degoogled and friendly
