#waypipe on #postmarketOS is the best solution I've ever used for running applications on my desktop at home on my phone while I'm away. It's seamless and apps show up natively alongside local apps with proper touchscreen control, mouse control (via #TouchpadEmulator), #squeekboard OSK, and scaling. I used to think ssh -X was the only thing I missed about X11, but after trying waypipe no way. X11 is dead. I don't miss it at all.
Reinstalled #ArchLinux on my #ROGAlly Z1 Extreme, dual booted with Windows 11. KDE is a nice interface but is pretty awful to use with only a touchscreen so I installed #phosh with my custom #squeekboard layouts and #TouchpadEmulator. This could be the best UI for "desktop mode" on touchscreen gaming handhelds if it handled fullscreen games (especially with UI scaling above 100%) better and supported Variable Refresh Rate. It is so nice for everything besides gaming.

phosh 0.43.1 is out 🚀📱🎅 :

This is a small bug fix release addressing two important issues in #phosh and #squeekboard that shouldn't wait 'til 0.44.0.

Yay! #phosh #squeekboard added the Shift modifier in the latest release! I updated my custom layout to add a "Sft" button that applies the Shift modifier and now I can Shift+Alt multiline select in #vscode!

New #phosh #squeekboard landed in #postmarketOS! Handles fractional scaling significantly better now! The keyboard still gets smaller, but it stretches to fill the available space rather than wasting space with black bars and making the keys even smaller. I hope that fractional scaling eventually will not impact keyboard height at all, but this is already a huge usability upgrade.

This is at 150% scale:

#squeekboard got an improved shift modifier, better fills empty space in the panel and adds Unicode 16.0 emojis ➕ more consistency fixes in layouts

Mobile Settings now allows to configure the size of #squeekboard and the completer used in phosh-osk-stub (https://fosstodon.org/@[email protected]/113284617593153842)

I'm so happy that @phosh #squeekboard works with Electron/Chromium apps now! Editing code on #VSCode on my #postmarketOS #OnePlus 6T! I'm working on improving my Touchpad Emulator app, which allows for using the touchscreen as a mouse and makes working with desktop applications on mobile a lot easier.

Raspberry Pi OS improves touchscreen support and now uses Wayland by default

The latest version brings a big change that causal users might not even notice: it uses the labwc Wayland compositor by default on all Raspberry Pi models rather than the wayfire compositor or X Window system.
