@m1m0md Alpine Linux on laptop and postmarketOS (which is Alpine-based) on phone.

@interfluidity is it a meme to say we live in a republic, not a democracy?
The tyranny of the majority is still real, even if they feel legitimized by a better voting system.

@kim_harding @mike 👍 normies just want something that works and they can buy it today at a retail store. Shopping for free-software computers online or installing a different OS are just *not* things taught in a "How to use MS office" computer class.

@martijnbraam the missing capacitor?

@zudn If you're talking editing software, #Shotcut https://shotcut.org/ has served me well (the interface reminds me of the 2004-era iMovie)

@darius @mcc Not android, but still swipey: https://sr.ht/~earboxer/swipeKeyboard/sources

@hamblingreen or for $40 more, a used #OnePlus6 on ebay? https://www.ebay.com/itm/145030986570

@ariadne My iPod touch can't browse much of the internet due to never-to-be-updated certificates...

@JustineSmithies And I'm the swipe-typing guy, so sb_predictor.sh from https://sr.ht/~earboxer/swipeKeyboard/sources

@JustineSmithies music: playerctl and the mpris plugins for your player are a must.

@dthompson are you planning to open-source your algorithm?

An opened source is the only way we can verify that things are done fairly.

@brucelawson MVP css (https://andybrewer.github.io/mvp/) is a good bare-bones framework for making a decent-looking site from scratch. <figure><img> would give you your "big image at the top".

Accessibility is just based on what HTML you feed it.

@mahmoudajawad @tuxdevices "Why not the PPP?" :
I think I just wanted to try an SDM-845 device. It also didn't hurt that it was a couple hundred dollars cheaper (excellent condition refurb). If someone sent me a PPP, I'd gladly try it out tho ;)

@mahmoudajawad @tuxdevices My PinePhone had serious issues with suspend not resuming properly, and occasionally had weird glitchy screen issues. The OnePlus 6 has better battery life and working suspend. It can run a web browser with multiple tabs and other GUI apps without crashing.

@tuxdevices Just switched from PinePhone to the OnePlus 6. The screen is a little jittery, and it's missing camera support, otherwise, it's a nice upgrade.

@Edent I switched my servers from Ubuntu to Alpine. While initial configuration is trickier, I like the larger software repository, which is easier to contribute to, IME.

@zudn @TMakarios I use micro, which is (like nano) a terminal application.
Unlike nano, it has pretty good mouse support and nicer default keybindings.
(The real reason I made the switch was for multiple cursors)
