Found too yesterday on F-Droid. Absoutley glorious, even runs perfectly smooth on a almost 10 year old Galaxy S6 Edge.

Powershell, but heavily customized.

He reads article or forum thread. Thats it.

I used garuda for a while when doing Android stuff and was really surprised that a lot of things like adb, fastboot and all the filetransfer stuff was working out of the box without even having to setup any android sdk, drivers, … . Not really a distrohopper however, so I can’t tell you if this is a common feature on other distros.

yeah, also the constant wait times when you install APK… it used to be a decent OS but starting with MiUi 11 they started really enshitifiying big time.

MiUi for sure

No x86 is pretty much the only Platfrom I’m aware of where you can build a generic Kernel that will work with pretty much any hardware configuration out of the box.

Probably not what you wanna hear but a Galaxy Tab S6 with Termux, Dex and Keyboard is pretty great.

This was my exact setup for years. I had a J3455 NUC and increased its memory to 16GB and installed Proxmox. It worked really well.

I’m more concerned that the web will get even slower and bloated. We are already seeing the first frameworks that ship a webassembly .NET runtime, Python runtime, JVM, … . I kinda fear that in 10 years when you visit a site you need to download runtime xyz in version abc for the 1000th time. All because some people or companies just can not be bothered to learn any new technology.

Sounds a lot like the Android 4.X and 2.X days. Its unfortunate that Google over time has locked down Android more and more. I mean having the option to do wild stuff is better than not having it.

The only real usecase I could see is with a proper Desktop Mode like DEX on High end Samsung phones or Motorola’s ready for. Where you can plug your phone into a Monitor and attach a physical keyboard and mouse. In that case, yeah it would be neat to break out of the Android jail.

I 100% agree.

Love it or hate it, Android is extremly fast, polished, stable and easy to use, not to mention it has gigantic library apps that are built to work perfectly with a touchscreen.

I honestly don’t really get what there is to gain by using “Desktop Linux”. I mean sure some proper Programs offer way more features than Apps but using them on a 6.5" Touchscreen sounds like pain.

The UK - nah they are too weak and small. But I could see a world where a U.S. leader claims that they are the successor state to the british empire and thus have the right to reclaim the land.

And now Samsung and AMD are developing mobile GPUs lol

Pulls out the remote unaliver

They got bought up by AMD and their mobile GPU division got bought by qualcom.

Its nonsense because in most of these examples at least one is gobbledygook , like something no normal person would actually say or write.

Also with context you 95% of time know whats ment. Same in every other lanuage.

These guys are breathing their own farts 24/7, my god.

How about they fix their old ass engine for real this time and implement proper space travel instead of gaslighting people into liking their games.

Another monochromatic flat logo, oh boy.

Samsung offered this for a short while with Linux on Dex. You could easily run a lightweight Ubuntu Desktop container when plugged in. Sadly they removed it after a few months.
