Hi, FairPhoners _o/
I’m Epy, freshly subscribed here, not already a FP owner but it is seriously considered for a few reasons I’ll explain
I’m a FOSS enthousiast (not sure of this term, english is not my native language) I would say FOSSH thought to include hardware too ^_^.
I’m also careful where I put my data and prefer to own it fully, even if it has some drawbacks or comfort disavantages.
I know FairPhone goal is not about open source software nor hardware but the fair trade hardware is also important to me 
And there is a Opensource version of the OS, yay !
I’m really not happy with my current phone I had for free from family (Nokia 650) but I was forced to change because my N9 loses text messages when it contains one of these dumb new emojis… (text smileys were standards ! 
)
Not losing friends and family was “a little” more important than an old phone … I’m still using it for some apps, fully offline 
I’m mistrusftful from Android and iOS (not to mention WinPhone OS …) but the choice is thin those days … 
I hoped to use SailfishOS (almost FOSS and out of big data companies) on a recent phone but it doesn’t seems ready to use daily on FP2 from what I read, maybe I’m wrong ? And there is not many other hardware options
Won’t talk about other SFOS options here but I’m studying them too
I was considering buying an FP2 and flashing LineageOS with microG, I’m confident I won’t need much Play store Apps, so that’s not a real problem. I will find what I need on Fdroid
And then, here I am Already with a daily-usage question I’ll ask in another topic I think (so much to read here !)
Thanks for this community
