Fairphones are pretty well supported with PostmarketOS which is mainline Linux. Audio support being one big feature that is missing on all of them. Luca Weiss from Fairphone is working on mainline Linux patches for these devices. The Fairphone 6 booted with Linux support on the first day it was released (though still missing many drivers)

I wish Fairphone would hire more People to work on Linux support


Great to hear that you’re looking to get into PostmarketOS development! I recommend taking a phone that’s already supported, using it and then figure out how improve support the device.
Porting/Mainlining a new device is also possible but that can be demotivating if it doesn’t work and it’s generally harder to get started with.
If you have any questions or need help you can dm me and I can help.
