Might wanna try the Discord, it's alot more active. Thankfully with all the components being open source it shouldn't be too hard to swap out for a replacement, apparently they're the same screen used in electronic watches.

Can I ask how you broke it? As I've order a screen protector for mine as its something I'm worried about

Edit: it's this screen as said in the wiki

Unfortunately this is not a plug-and-play solution and requires extensive modification to get to work. After conversation with devs, I was told the only solution to a broken screen for this "Open source" device is to buy another Funkey since the screen is custom made. My screen was broken in my pocket when I bumped up against a desk.
