@b3ll of course it does! We’ve got limited budgets and need to design custom charging cables and wireless charging battery extenders. Or we need to pay Teenage Engineering to shit out a rejected Playdate prototype. We don’t have money for custom Linux runtimes! AOSP is the new Busybox is a thing I legit wrote a decade ago.
@cabel@b3ll people who don’t half-ass hardware! So it’s basically you guys and Valve (Valve counts because yes they use Linux as fhe base for SteamOS but they delivered Proton and built the entire custom UI. And before people try to claim Valve got Proton from Wine, yes. They had a base to start with. They then invested the resources to actually make Wine good in the modern era and they do patches on the weekly to fix game quirks)
@film_girl@cabel yeah, whole-heartedly agree! Proton is it's own wild psuedo operating system (which sometimes runs better than Windows itself), and Playdate OS is wholesome (and now runs wipeout??) 😍
@cabel@film_girl@b3ll so I just got by Rabbit R1 today. I bought it cause it’s adorable and I figured I could probably stick Linux on it (surprise it’s already on it I guess) buuuuuut how about Playdate OS?? 😊
