Can you imagine how many years of email admin lives would be saved and how simpler their lives would be if people simply did not send emails to #gmail and #hotmail ????

google and microsoft are like two of the biggest offenders when it comes to email, bullying smaller services. And yet every email sysadmin has to work to comply with google and MS rules.

@brainblasted congrats

@agx now you need to do a new release of #phosh 'cause I want that!!! :p

@martijnbraam this is pretty cool!

@brainblasted in my case; at this moment using windows for more than 10 min makes me cranky

@brainblasted if a flatpak app is self contained; it works ok. but the moment it needs to interact with apps in the host system problems can happen. Flatpak can have it's uses. But it is not a silver bullet. It also has limitations

@brainblasted there are some limitations stiil like when flatpak apps need to interact with apps in the host system. the exanple that comes to mind is gnome-contacts; gnome-caledar flatpak versions needing to interact with evoluntion-data-server on the host system. if the versions are too far off it wont work because api is not compatible. gnome-boxes has issues with forwarding from usb ports. because of that smartcard readers like nitrkeys dont work with gnome-boxes.

Also, if you want to make it a chalenge, then why not a 100% Free Software distro (no proprietary drivers): like #trisquel, or #pureos, or #guix

There is a list to choose from ;)

@bart @linmob going down the same road; How is Hanna Montana Linux there and not Debian????

@h3artbl33d @rysiek@mastodon.technology @kravietz I recall someone was interested in porting it, to make it run on linux devices.
