Better start a kickstarter or something to collect enough funds to build true open source mobile operating system. Someone will reply that's impossible, but I say it is just a matter of keeping scope small. Basic OS, few most important apps - phone, sms, maybe calendar or alarm, and let users build everything else themselves.


The users are gonna build replacements for Uber, car parking apps, bank apps, etc?


"Your App Should Have Been A Website", and banks at least in EU are providing open banking API, so it should be doable. More incentive for everyone to build APIs again.


postmarketOS is already there. You need hardware support to make it happen
