I really wish that I was born early so I’ve could witness the early years of Linux. What was it like being there when a kernel was released that would power multiple OSes and, best of all, for free?
I want know about everything: software, hardware, games, early community, etc.
I love modern cli Linux distros.
I am about to plunge into desktop Linux this year.
Linux phone, pc and tablets only for me from now on
Death to oligarch business!
What do you use? Daily driver?
I have not chosen yet.
I am between purism Librem 5 (expensive) and pinephone (cheap)
I am leaning to pinephone since it’s so cheap if I hate it it won’t ruin me
Have you considered SailfishOS?
Personally I recommend getting a Sony Xperia and installing it yourself.
SFOS has been my daily driver for 5 years now.
I paid €49 for the license, so it’s a bargain right now at 24.90, and my latest device, an xperia x10ii, cost just €60.
Let me know if you get your Pinephone working well enough to daily-drive, 'cause I’ve got one sitting around collecting dust.
Which linux phone is practical?
Almost all of them lack good hardware and feel overpriced.
I use SailfishOS on a Sony Xperia. 50€ for the SFOS license, 60€ for the phone.
Which iPhone isn’t overpriced lol
I like librem 5 for the features but it is expensive.
I like pinephone for the price.
