  • “Linux phones will skyrocketed” by who? Nerds, the comum user doesn’t care if Android is proprietary or opensource, they don’t even know.

    There’s already other mobile OS but have the same issue, no apps or developers interested on making apps for it.

    FirefoxOS, Ubuntu touch, something else Linux based, it’s for some nerds play on a secondary phone.

    Comum people don’t stop using Windows or macOS because it’s proprietary or a privacy nightmare. EU didn’t stop selling iPhones because it’s proprietary.

    It’s the device vendors that decide which OS would ship, and people will use it

    As long a comic reader, this movie portraits everything that Superman is.

    Instead of god on earth like the Man of Steel, this Superman care about everyone even the squirrel.

    And the other characters they nailed each one, Guy Gardner personality is exactly like the comics, best Lex Luthor i have seen in movies (and it’s bald), and of course the best character Krypto, stole every scene when it shows.

    Looking forward for Supergirl, supposedly based on “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow” which a great comic

    That’s why i use Markor on, it saves on markdown (.md), text (.txt) files, and sync with Syncthing to other devices.

    Without databases, or third party hosts, i can open any file on other devices using the apps of my choice, can use Markor on Android and nvim on PC.

    No need to pay extra or use specific apps to work.

    I also tried other not taking apps, but I needed to use some electron app that uses 1GB RAM to edit a markdown file, and decrypt some proprietary online storage. Why use some overcomplicated software when i can do the same Kwrite or nano









  • Is it?

    Android uses Apache License 2.0, which means vendors can modify and distribute without publishing their modifications, like include proprietary blobs and other proprietary code.

    It’s like using Google Chrome instead of Chromium.

    Yes you can debloat the system, but many system apps can’t be disabled without breaking the system, and ROMs based on AOSP the code can be reviewed or modified and built it yourself.

    Xiaomi and mostly stock ROMs these days come bundled with ads, and apps that collect user data, even with debloat or DNS blackhole isn’t 100% private or better than a custom ROM.
    That’s why Graphene and CalyxOS exist.
