I don’t see any reason to switch from a pure Linux based OS like SailfishOS to an Android (AOSP) derivate like /e/OS, LineageOS or GrapheneOS even though I have tried them all. I do also like the „privacy” and „sustainability” point using these AOSP derivates but one crucial app they are missing, namely SystemDataScope by Rinigus and there are many only SailfishOS apps that I would heavily miss if I ever would have a need to switch to some other De-Googled mobile OS. I’m sorry but the SailfishOS community is still more active and powerful than others. My background is also from the mighty Nokia N900 / N9 and N950 times and pure Linux vs. Android is a different world if growing up with a real Terminal in the hand. However, I’m still happy to flash for friends and relatives /e/OS, LineageOS or GrapheneOS if they feel good with the Android looking user interface.
My big concern would be also to protect my battery from overcharging in the AOSP’s. Is there a way to make charging to stop at a certain threshold level e.g. 80 or 90% as I haven’t been able to find this option?
I’m still wanting to try UbuntuTouch but don’t have funding for a Volla X23 with this other pure Linux OS. Nevertheless, I use SailfishOS on the Xperia 10 III and Xperia 10 plus as my daily drivers.
By the way there are great differences separating those AOSP OSS from pure Linux mobile OSS from the figure I recently made (cp. http://doi.org/10.1002/sd.2995)
