Reading a bit on #PostmarketOS, #PlasmaMobile, #Halium etc.

There are lots of pieces in that puzzle, and I'm not likely to spring for the PinePhone hardware. But PlasmaM may be a viable option for a side project – I could pick away at it to vent frustrations with Android. I even see one of my old phones mentioned - the MotoG6 on which some have had some porting success.

(GrapheneOS sounds nice, but it's all Google Pixel hardware :frownyFace )

#vulkan coming to a #halium phone near you! Looks like the #FuriLabs and #UbuntuTouch folks have been hard at work getting vulkan to a usable state.

This opens up all the #wayland vulkan applications that seem to have problems related to GLES.

Should be enabled soon:tm: to the general audience, do note it only works with wayland and not x11.

Here's a short video of the #FLX1 running vkcube and godot benchmarks all running in vulkan!

#flx #linuxphones #halium For anyone considering a Furilabs FLX phone, I just wanted to point out there's been a lot of issues going on with the company recently. Their blog post in 2024 about 4G and 5G were found to be false, as even today 5G still doesn't work properly in the USA on T-Mobile, on their FLX1 like they claimed it completely did. They also are now closing the source code to Andromeda, their Android compatibility layer...

@privacyguides I think #LinuxMobile is the only real path forward for freedom.

Instead of hoping in #Google, it would be better in the long run if concerned users rallied behind #Linux options (mainline or #Halium-based), and there are quite a few now, existing and upcoming.

"Cool, more phones that run a Linux userspace!"

Ein Paar Korrekturen zu meinem @datenspuren talk zu #linuxmobile:
- neben #postmarketos ist auch #mobian komplett frei und läuft auf einem mainline Linux kernel. Droidian ist zwar verwandt mit Mobian, ist wiederum aber #halium basiert
- libhybris ist ein Kompatibilitätslayer um Android Applikationen (z. B. Treiber) auf einem Linux laufen zu lassen (meinte ich so, habs aber versehentlich andersrum gesagt)
- die Mail app auf einer der Folien war
natürlich #geary und nicht #evolution
