Looking for testimonials of Librem 5 users successfully using it as your only or primary mobile phone and internet browsing.
For all of us who have yet to receive our phone and may be considering a refund, your experiences with the phone will help us.

At least 23 people on this forum (including myself) do use it as primary/only device according to this survey. Personally I still need an Android phone to act as second factor for bank and work’s VPN. But everything else (like posting this forum message) is on my L5.

I posted a review a couple months ago with my experience.

Interesting because on my L5 ProtonVPN works just fine. GUI and all.

I suppose your work VPN just doesn’t have a native Linux client?

Sorry, I meant “second factor for {bank and work’s VPN}”. The VPN itself is on the company laptop, the phone is just for authentication.

Slightly off topic, but is this true on your Reform too? Last I heard, ProtonVPN on ARM would only build with make build-nogui.
