Since #gnome makes it hard to use my convertible as a tablet, I installed #plasmadesktop and #plasmamobile today and both are much smoother. Although they have their shortcomings, most of my issues with Gnome in the tablet mode are fixed. I'm still loyal to gnome and I'm waiting for #gnomemobile to be installable on desktop (an actively maintained AUR package maybe?).

(Writing this from Tokodon on Plasma Mobile)

@ibrahim @linmob why not Phosh?

@primalmotion I have #Phosh installed and I love it but:
1. I couldn't get the on-screen keyboard to work, although I installed Squeekboard.
2. A full-screen quick toggles menu is too much for a big screen.
3. Gestures don't always work from the first time (especially closing apps).
4. There's no way to organize the app grid and it's too busy on my screen in portrait mode (91 icons).
5. Using touch doesn't hide the cursor.
6. The mobile-friendly apps is lacking and unnecessary on big screens.

@ibrahim @primalmotion

1. Doesn't unfold? Doesn't show at all? How did you install it? Both squeekboard and phosh-osk-stub are used on different form factors from phone to touch enabled laptops.

2.: you can use a bit of CSS to make parts transparent similar to https://social.librem.one/@agx/109875125645959859

4. You can "organize" things by moving them to favorites. Not yet great but works.

5. The cursor is hidden on touch only devices. If there's a mouse / trackbal attached it's shown.

6. That can be turned off.
