Got eOS running on a spare Android I had put LineageOS on last year. The web installer was SO much better than how I had to install Lineage with the terminal. Still some work to improve the user experience of it, but nicely done overall!

I like a lot of the things eOS is doing, but they’re leaning more into iOS patterns more than I thought as well which is disappointing and frustrating. Things like swipe down on home to bring up search, the app grid not being flexible (this is such a basic thing Android has had for so long, and I think even iOS changed their’s now?), and the swipe-left-on-home panel that looks suspiciously too much like iOS control center. Plus, only letting widgets be there instead of anywhere?

I hope they can keep differentiating their visual design language, UX interactions and other things to feel more open and customizable. I do like the personalizable font, icon, and other customization options that core Android removed a few years ago though, so props for that!
