Good thing it’s compatible with a lot of Custom Roms
Having custom ROM compatibility is good. But, this is not acceptable for a device you daily drive. You do not expect a software update to brick the phone, or erase the data.
Yeah, that’s why I’m recommending people to get on a custom rom instead, clearly Fairphone is not testing as thoroughly as the LineageOS people
To be fair: Constantly happens even to the big players like Samsung and their Galaxys:

Heres the forum for anyone interested: https://forum.fairphone.com/t/software-update-fp4-qrel-15-15-2/128554/65
I updated recently so keeping an eye out. No issues just yet, but I dont use that many SIM cards like others do.

That’s not fair.
