I normally don't go for "rogue"-anything but this has SUCH good reviews, I'm going to give the demo a go right now.

Of this list, Naiad & Drill Core seem the most interesting. Naiad just has a super cool aesthetic, and drill core looks like it could maybe just maybe scratch that Steamworld Dig itch that just never ever ever ever seems to go away.

so this is like openmw it seems. Love it! I never played the IWD games. I don't know why, because I did play the BG games, but somehow just totally missed the IWD ones. I might give this a try!

I love a good single player scifi fps campaign, so as long as they can deliver, I'm on board. Wishlisted. Thank you!

I agree with @vox.
@ElectricPrism & @g000h ... these aren't really options for daily drivers though are they? And what is mentioned about the software is fine and all, but wheres the hardware?
I know use cases will vary wildly from person to person, but for me, my definition of "daily driver" phone would be:

I know use cases will vary wildly from person to person, but for me, my definition of "daily driver" phone would be:
- all day battery life with medium usage of all the below stuff - I don't mind charging if I'm doing a heavy usage day, but for light to medium day to day use I don't want to charge at all
- make and receive phone calls and sms reliably (I know this seems silly to mention, but there are some linux "phones" out there that struggled to do this) with push notifications
- install signal and whatsapp with push notifications
- install my bank app because that's how I deposit checks
- sync a calendar with my wife because that's how we coordinate childcare drop offs and pickups
- listen to podcasts / music
- reliably navigate somewhere with a mapping app and gps
- send and receive emails with push notifications
- reliably take pictures and videos in decent quality

I would do unspeakable things for a linux phone that could be used as a daily driver. Unfortunately this does not exist, and it doesn't look like it'll be existing anytime soon either. Sad.

Having ethernet and USB ports makes the device useful for people working in the auto industry as well as those working in networking. Smart idea.Network architect's dream. I didn't have an ethernet tester when we were building our home, so I was just walking around the house with the electrician to every room with my heavy ass laptop with a usbc->eth adapter dangling off of it, and perching in mid air to connect to the wall socket and test it. This device would be perfect for that!

Very nice!!! I'm a huge supporter of this de, and will probably try and use it as my daily driver when they hit beta. And we're supposed to have a fedora spin sometime soon which will be awesome.

I'm with @tuubi ... we all are here because we love and support and use an os that has a tiny market share. So how is firefox any different? I personally love and support and use firefox all day every day.
I REALLY wish this linux foundation would put their resources towards the mozilla foundation, but oh well. Mozilla has been doing some not so great things lately, but I feel like if they had more resources they wouldn't? I don't know.
I just don't want firefox to go away is all.
