That article is just a pointless rant. Half of the issues are due to the chosen device, the FuriPhone FLX1 (both because of technical choices, e.g., no Plasma Mobile available because it is a Halium device (and Plasma Mobile would come closer to the author's UI expectations than Phosh in several places), and because of issues in custom FuriLabs applications, e.g., the FuriOS Gallery app), the other half due to the ineptitude of the user (e.g., I do not believe the author has tried to install the mobile Qt applications, except for Telegram Desktop, from the Debian repositories rather than from Flathub).
On a phone with a working Plasma Mobile setup, with Angelfish as the browser, Plasma Photos (Koko) as the gallery, etc., the author would have experienced none of the issues mentioned in the article.
