It makes me really sad that Microsoft gave up on the windows phone as it had the best user interface and the performance was great. It was an easy to use third option to Android and IOS. Although not open source.

2 more years and Postmarket OS will be just as old as the windows phone was when it shutdown.

ugh absolutely correct take. i wish some of the edge of screen touch gestures were preserved into 10 and 11, those were on par with ios even today
