    I have a fairphone 5.

    I tried installing iodeOS, the installation was quite difficult as their tool let me down during the installation. Impossible to complete the installation, after multiple tries. So I had to install lineage OS and sideload iode OS on top.

    Then I tried CalyxOS, the installation was seamless. I added TrackerControl to limit the tracking of some apps from the aurora store and a Gcam port. This combination is the best phone experience I’ver ever had !

    Edit : I used to have a oneplus 7 on /e/OS before the fairphone. Their trackerblocker is really nice. Their app store is an aurora store able to search on fdroid (but you can not add repos). Their privacy related notation system for the applications is a nice touch.

    I had some trouble with their store this past few months, so I had to install the aurora store to update my apps.

    Their services were down during a few weeks/months I guess, but it seems to work again.
