I don't understand what you're talking about. SXMo (https://sxmo.org/) is fast on Pinephone. Even Phosh is pretty usable. Firefox with NoScript is more than good enough to browse web sites with pictures.

Also, Librem 5 is much faster than Pinephone, and I've been using it as a daily driver for quite some time already.

You do not expect any 'normal' person to ever use this SXMo shell, right? Hell, most nerds I know wouldn't want to touch this with a 10ft pole.

SXMo simply proves that slow hardware isn't a problem. I also said that Phosh worked well enough for me, even on a Pinephone.
