Crimson uses Bookworm; Byzantium (current release) uses Bullseye. PureOS uses its own repositories.

There is no equivalent for Trixie.

Hybrid? I doubt it. Seems far more stable than unstable to me.

Which in turn, cites this blog article:

Then, bringing it up to the present, we have this scenario:

  • Byzantium, which is stable
  • Crimson, which is rolling

The key terminology here is “hybrid point release and rolling release model”, not “hybrid stable and unstable”.

By the way, here is Crimson:

Your description of hybrid is vague and suggests that PureOS is some sort of amalgamation between stable and unstable repositories, so I had to clarify all ambiguities and terminologies.

You might want to take a look at /etc/default/flash-kernel, there are some params here that I think will disable plymouth.

I am not sure if making changes to this file alone is all that’s needed, or if there are additional steps to “flash” the kernel.

splash plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles
I have not tested this, but I think removing them will disable Plymouth.
I am using this this a reference. (sorry to link you to the Arch wiki, I know you aren’t a huge fan of that either :))

Anyone know if there are ARM builds for the phone somewhere? Also, what is the difference between Gnome & Gnome OEM?
Is there an ARM KDE build too?

The former sets up LUKS and user accounts before installation, the latter sets up LUKS and user accounts after installation.

No.
