gollark: Unfortunately this is ridiculously niche, and I can hardly on any practical budget make my own.

gollark: Just give me a reasonably sized cuboid with a rectangular screen I can actually hold - it doesn't need to be stupidly high-res or stupidly high-refresh-rate - two cameras, a physical keyboard, user-replaceable components, a µSD card slot, a headphone jack, and a USB-C port or two. Also, a customizable GNU/Linux OS.

gollark: I think the concept of phones is good anyway. I just don't agree with current design trends. At all.

gollark: I mean, they have issues, but I think phones are generally good.Also, it's hardly him who caused it...
