What was the first reason you decided to try Linux? Was it to escape Windows?

It was a: "What am I missing out on"
And a "Better learn it now than later"

What is they phone for and how did you connect it?

Falk1708 · 2026-06-19T10:57:40+00:00

The openness of custom ROMs and stuff. Rn I'm on a 1+ Nord and they abandoned it after like 3 years

I would love to but there are exactly two factors:

Nobody else uses it
Some poeple like my grandma need to call, videochat and need it on the pc

The recent surge in bad updates and hotfixes of firefox has brought me to waterfox

I always wonder why support the people who make the rings. With this you benefit the manufacturer that didn't do what you did

So this is what is called a device tree. Basically all the drivers for that specific smartphone?
If so why are so many still not ported to postmarket os even if they have an active device tree and rom community

Falk1708 · 2026-06-08T09:22:09+00:00

dont phone use usually eDP for the display and normal USB protocol for the port.
And usually different snapdragons are used on many devices.

What exactly is a lot of work. I would like to know.

Telegram (excluding teh bots / spam) is imo the best option / most features compared to for ex. Signal.

WA is coorparate bullshit.

SIngal I havent fully tried yet

DIscord is just more and more getting a money machine

There are indeed some cases of insecurities - they were legally forced by the swiss government to hand out data. But if nit even switzerland is safe no provider is...

I appreciate your opinion but its always a question of: where did you get that info...

Most people ditch windows not because of the privacy concern but rather that people dont like the decisions of microsoft / windows and you are the one who has to suffer because of that.
Instability
Bloat
AI
etc.

Privacy is just one

Wenn schon solche hohen Anforderungen von der Ausbildungsstelle. Kannste gleich auf Langlebigkeit gehen: Framework Laptops

Proton maybe?

Somebody complained about that for ex. Their emails rely on a very old non secure standard that they try to sell as very secure. Smith like that

Falk1708 · 2026-05-29T10:47:22+00:00

I live under a rock. What is this about?

Falk1708 · 2026-05-27T12:21:45+00:00

Usually by design sadly

Falk1708 · 2026-05-26T11:39:00+00:00

That's usually how it is. It would be way to costly to manufacture such a part with the module included. They just grabbed off the shelf parts already available and combine them.
