I trust my regular followers (blog, videos, social media) to somewhat know my tone by now (I've been writing over a hundred blog posts over the past two years), and it’s them I wrote this for.
I don’t really know how to make it clearer in the limited time I can justify for low-content-value posts like this – and I did not intend for this to land on the hn front page. My best idea is that I could add a caveat box is reading "Hey, i don't like to brag, it's been fun, so read it it more positively than it's written, but don't ignore the negatives fully.", but that would be super weird.
I have a day job that I have to attend now, so I can really only change anything once the attention has moved on to something different.
Nobody's complaining about the author or blog here? If anything, I'm quite grateful to them for documenting all the warts, and making it really clear that the PinePhone is not an option for us casuals in the process.

Cant do that religions exists where people believe in God without any evidence, and people exist who believe in Govt & democracy, so that says it all really.
