I can definitely see where you’re coming from and I have similar experiences. I got fairly fed up with the fact that the modem often doesn’t come up again after suspend on the pinephone. And if you disable sleep like I often do, you often find a dead battery. Despite all the great work of so many people, I’d have hoped for some more stability in the ecosystem by now.
I also took up a spare Android phone unfortunately, but I’m really fighting with its interface, I want my sxmo !

Some say it’s better not to use cellphones at all.
Never considered anything other than Android, but it’s an excellent idea. It’s a shame none of the options are good. Anyone have any insight as to why things suck?
I’d say wildly variable hardware configurations with poor driver support.
The situation would improve if hardware vendors would upstream the code, but I just don’t see it.
As much as Alphabet sucks ass, I have had very good results with Nexus/Pixel devices and LineageOS. All the hardware seems to be supported right down to high-framerate mode on the camera on the Pixel2.
Lack of funding. Throw enough money at this problem and it will be solved.
