Hey, don't stress out about it. I was suckered in as well. I think a lot of people were.
Realising that you were wrong is part of growing. I actually consider Obama to be the first crack in my leftist-ism journey. If he hadn't failed so openly and spectactularly, I'd probably still be a shitlib.
I'm late to thist post, but I have the FLX1s, and I love it. It's buggy as hell, so I wouldn't give it to a normie, but it does mostly work. It's nice to be able to ssh in, and just start scripting stuff. I'm excited to see how the updates go, as there is a lot of low-hanging fruit.
I've been pretty disappointed with FuriLabs, and how they handled the FLX1 to FLX1s transition, but this is the best phone that I've ever had.
