Sure, everyone who doesn't immediately murder a nazi on sight definitely supports them with their whole heart.
This is a self-hosting community, not a canceling one. Please take a long breath and move on, if your shining armor allows that.

You pretty much just look under your feet usually. Globally they get dumped in bulk on ebay, local platforms for p2p sales of used stuff also have them in most of the world.

Well, I don't want to sound like I'm victim-blaming, but I find it essential to research anything more significant than a pencil before purchase, not just premium (price-wise) phones.
In an ideal world you could trust marketing, but we don't live in that world, so even soviet monopoly marketing that didn't need to lie (or exist, because monopoly) did oversell it's products.
So I try to promote the idea of "lurk before you buy" any chance I get.

@Hamartiogonic
I don't know who expexts it to be daily driver. You only need to spend like 15 minutes lurking, which seems reasons for a $1k purchase.
Purism markets it as the phone they aim for it to be, not the phone it is right now. Which is misleading, but in several years I hope it won't be anymore.
To be fair, I daily drive it. It just isn't my main device, I have an /e/os FP4 doing the heavy lifting an L5 doing /some/ stuff. And I charge L5 3 times as often as FP. But it's getting better.

If you want to get it semi-quickly, you buy USA edition. I preordered Standard edition in 2019, got it this May. Software state is "fun to tinker with, but if you give this to a normie they will probably kill themselves in a matter of minutes."
There also still is some software essential to my workflow that doesn't fit on the phone screen, so I needed a dock to set it up with external display, mouse and keyboard.

RN it's a toy and a devkit, not an end-user product.

Yes, that's the way Mastodon works. I use Tuba, Tootle was also fine.

@Shatur
Yes. I think it either works or is discussed to make signing to Lemmy with Mastodon account work, but not the other way around.
Lemmy is pretty young I think, so its client app base will grow over time.

@cnnrduncan I mean that I am able to consume lemmy content like this post and to interact with it like my replies. Personal interface preferrence is irrelevant, anyone is free to use anything they like.

@Shatur Mastodon here instead of Lemmy, but makes no difference on the Fediverse.
