There's a pretty active modding / hacking channel in the Light Phone discord that's out there somewhere. I haven't tried it on my own LP2, but some folks are flashing theirs with alternate versions of Android to get a few additional apps that they need
In my opinion, not having an open platform and open-source code is completely at odds with "respecting the user" and whatever nice stuff they write on their website.

Are these hackable?
If I recall correctly v1 and 2 were completely closed, not sure though.

Open up or shut up.
I had the same thoughts. Hardware potentially looks great. I don't buy into using their software at all. Would be nice to develop for it.
