gollark: PostmarketOS is based on Alpine Linux, so takes probably about a tenth or less of the space.
gollark: Ale: that doesn't fix the issue that it's still running on top of a bloated spying mess.
gollark: Alas, it's currently not really suitable for everyday use (no data/calls/texts on basically all supported devices, etc).
gollark: There's a cool project called PostmarketOS for running proper GNU/Linux on phones.
gollark: I run LineageOS, but it's still bad.
