Pin64.org looks to have been much too optimistic

[LinAdmin]

You forgot to quote the rest of the sentence: "the device cannot be considered as a consumer-ready product."
Hardware & firmware do work, however "the core purpose of this campaign is to provide hardware capable of running mainline Linux to members of the community so that postmarketOS developers can benefit from feedback and code contributions to their project."
There are some regressions in some operating systems, some work better than others. This being a phone capable of running (near-)mainline Linux, anything can be fixed, at least in theory, albeit not by Pine64.

I did not forget to quote that part of the text, but summarized it.

This is not a finished product nor does Pine64 claim that it was.

I did not expect that and did not request it in my original posting.
