More interest is a very far cry from “linux phones are booming”. Linux phones are not booming, they are niche projects for people that like to tinker and don’t need any of the most popular phone apps and features.

Until we can install linux on more than a couple phones, trust cellular connections across all the networks and have access to the majority of features and apps that a smart phone should possess, linux phones will never “boom”.

I say this as a Ubuntu touch user on the Fairphone 4. It is not an experience that anyone else I know would accept from their smartphone.

I hope they choose to focus efforts on linux instead of trying to keep Google from fully obliterating their ability to offer apps on the Android platform.

Even if they are thrown a bone during this fight, it’s going to keep happening until they lose. The reason linux is so bad to try to use as a smartphone right now is because entities like these are busy trying to piss up a rope with Google and Android. We could have actually had robust and feature rich linux phones if they had taken the hint when Google first started shitting on people trying to use their Android phone in the way they want to.

Linux phones are booming.

Booming, eh?

If you’re having problems finding the linux line on the graph, it’s one of those at the 0%.

Why is this even mildly infuriating? Who’s that emotionally invested in a corporation and a bunch of influencers patting each other on the back?

As soon as you’re forced to buy that vacuum, sure, your analogy is rock solid and it’s like actual slavery.

Never watch a video that ends a statement with a question mark In the thumbnail.

Thank you for the home.

I’ve not noticed bugs on the dev branch but look forward to improvements (I’d love for the default U’s home page to remember my place when retreating back to it from an article).

Thanks!

The lack of info leaves me curious. Is it with the purpose of spreading information, managing client accounts or???

Maybe you just have to swap and be okay with less people around, just so you can get out of Microsoft’s grip in open source.

I think you hit the nail on the head here. It is almost always the case that you will trade adoption/utilization/community for a less-used solution. Using loops, pixelfed, mastodon or piefed/lemmy, element, linux, FOSS web apps instead of their more popular system, they all come with an unspoken agreement that you embrace a niche-existence.

Only you can really decide what’s more important to you.

Waiting an unknown amount of time to be able to use your computer again is not viable.

I’ve dealt with this issue across distros and flavors for years and simply accept that using Firefox on Linux the way I use it requires a regular reboot.

I see this often with the firefox memory leak and containerizing it wouldn’t resolve the issue, as it’s literally freezing due to running out of system memory. Try to make a distinction between a frozen app and a systemwide exhaustion of resources.

If he doesn’t make a movie people want to watch, what makes him think he can write a book people will want to read?

I just don’t see this scenario in the same light. She did everything she could to make the situation in which she finds herself a reality and she’s not trying to enlighten anyone. She’s angry that her co-conspirators have turned on her due to a difference in opinion. She’s lashing out at internet personalities and literally behaving as if she didn’t play an incredibly large part in the creation of this dystopian reality she finds herself in.

Nothing she does or says will enlighten anyone worth persuading. She will simply eventually disappear and live her life out on the millions she made on the backs of the people while those people suffer under laws and regulations she helped make a reality.

I don’t think that word means what you think it means.

Why are people still giving this clown views?

Simply gorgeous. You make some great art.

I don’t follow him closely but it seems the current us pres spends the majority of his public time bothering with stuff he has no business bothering with.

I guess anything that happens while using a computer fits the community now?
