Pixelfed does this with mastodon.

Liftoff. Just a plain, minimal, and stable experience.

While overall I agree with this, their work on advancing gaming on Linux makes it easy to look the other way.

I’ve tried this out a bit recently, it runs really well but I can’t figure out why it exists. I don’t really understood the appeal of “everything apps”.

Delta Chat is still really good though, I definitely recommend people check it out.

Edit: didn’t realize there were some multiplayer games, being able to send a chess invite is actually pretty cool.

To each their own, and use whatever tool you prefer, but moving away from google and proprietary software is a lot easier than people think.

Aurora is a full replacement for the play store. I’ve been using fdroid as my only source for apps for years now. It has everything I need.

Cult of the Dead Cow

I keep a handkerchief on me and do this all the time.

I’ve only used one AMD card with Linux and it was so smooth I never thought about it. Lately I’ve been using nvidia for one year and I’m losing my sanity with it. Switching back to AMD next week.

Lemmy.ca is the best. Large local instance, great uptime, good admins.

And we have a handful of large communities.

So tempted to buy a domain and do this

Other users are also reporting such issues.

Since kernel 6.3 my laptop would only boot 1/10 times. After a week of not turning it off, I finally moved back to Arch.

The instances get overloaded quickly and the IPs blocked by google/Microsoft/etc… Better off self-hosting.

Two subreddits that I check on occasion for information/memes, both of which I’m hoping will eventually gain traction here. I don’t have an account though.

Battery life has been excellent on the oneplus6. As others have said, there are some major issues, such as GPS and the camera not working at all. Calls were giving me issues a few months ago, but nowadays with “edge” (the latest release) they’re quite reliable.

With all the bugs and problems, I could use PostmarketOS every day with minimal issues, I used it exclusively for just over a week and it was fine. I think in ~2-3 years I’ll be using Linux on mobile as my main device.

Linux operating system that is compatible with a few of android phones.

PostmarketOS on oneplus6 is nice. 👍

Probably the shift6, oneplus6 (or 6t), or librem 5.

Oneplus6 + postmarketos

It works really, really well.

Its not even software issues (I mean the software is still very early, but improving), the pinephone hardware is ridiculously underpowered while simultaneously drawing too much power.

The Pro fixes the underpowered issue, but gives you a couple hours of screen-on time. At first I was hopeful software updates would fix the battery life, but the same operating system (postmarketos) gives me a full day of use on my other phone (oneplus6). That leads me to believe it’s largely a hardware issue.

I hope I’m wrong. \o/
