Fairphone firmware and OS question

[hirnsushi]

There is ongoing work to mainline the FP4 kernel

Official Mainline Kernel Support for FP4 planned?

Recently Google and Oppo decided to develop necessary things for android and their devices and push it to the mainline Linux kernel… This makes maintaining things easier and longer lasting. Will the fairphone company work on getting the mainline kernel to boot on their phones eventually by getting device trees and drivers for individual components into minus tree or will that come down to the community again?

But there’s so much additional firmware that’s needed. Blob-free in a phone that has to talk to cell networks, not happening any time soon.
