I was kinda hanging out with a homies older sister … We kept that super low out of respect for him… Or did we both not want others to know? Dunno…

Sway is bae. Been using it for a bit now… I just really like how responsive it is. Bless the pinephones sxmo project to teaching me the way.

It’s a D&D podcast/stream. You can find their stuff most places and archived streams on their official YT channel. I hate podcasts and am not into D&D at all, but for some reason montyglu’s dm style has me hooked. Like she really cares about her NPCs and lore as well as making sure her players are having a good time. It helps her players are hilarious and most are really good voice actors. But you can tell they would be playing regardless of their internet followers and a source of income. Check it out. You don’t need campaign one to enjoy campaign two but you will miss out on some great stuff sprinkled in.

Probably not exactly what you are looking for, but the unexpectables discord server has a room dedicated to folks looking to link up. I loathe discord, but they’re the only reasons I visit that hellscape…

Fam, people are insanely petty… I frequent the pinephone channel rooms and I can almost predict when someone is about to post some toxic(sometimes illegal) shit there. All because someone didn’t read and or doesn’t have enough base Linux experience for such a janky phone and they’re butt-hurt over their investment. Bless text only clients.

So… It’s not without it’s challenges and I obviously cannot speak to how long it will last (particularly the hinge seems like it might long term be an issue), but I really love my p8 mini laptop. It’s a small 2 in 1 laptop that comes with a stylus, meets your price point and runs Linux pretty well. It has some quirkiness … Like when you boot the login screen is a blank screen until you close the lid to suspend and reopen. But otherwise is fairly peppy, and the pen works great. I’m using endeavoros with plasma but have just switched to sway. The latter greatly improves battery life. My biggest complaint is the placement of Q and Tab as well as / and .

FAAAAATHEEEEER!

It was like 10 years ago but source forge did notably had an issue with malware in their offerings. But they have since claimed to scan these apps…

So maaaybe?

I don’t own the pinebuds but the pinetime does have call answering. Now will it auto go to bt headphones… Phosh and plasma probably but not sure about sxmo

Kdeconnect might be what you’re looking for notifications but I do agree that this might not be for you… The pictures are very saturated and colors can be not true to life. Like your boss will probably think ‘what was this taken on and why did they edit them to look like this’. Bt works okay… But 2.4ghz wifi messes it up. And calls are like ‘works a lot of the time but sometimes it doesn’t and sounds like dookie.’ I’ve had a policemen curse me out over the call quality… Murica

My biggest issue with the pinephone is folks getting a pinephone expecting a smooth experience… It’s a dev phone and not for normal use. Does that mean it can be daily driven? Yes it can but you better be willing to put in work… Like I had an install over a year old, but I was messing around trying to get winedive to work and ended up borking the install.

If you want to daily drive a pinephone, expect carrying batteries and expect mucking about to get things to work most of the time …

texts are reliable. calls can be wonky but i always used gvoice (i know satan) to manage my calls reliably. camera… i’m going to be biased … i love the aesthetic but i would be remiss to ignore they arent the standard experience. for work no… for art yes! i love my pinetime and it worked great with my pinephone and android phone.

edit - there are xmmp and voip clients. i prefer maftrix which works great

fuck double edit- i need to mention i was on community modem firmware and changed my aspd. which was some work to get to work but had volte working reliably

I loved all by pinephones… the og is much more reliable but the pro is significantly faster and more ‘usable’ in terms of ‘let me open something and i expect it to open like fairly soon.’ I owned and daily’d both at some point so ama?

so i have’t really gotten to test this hard but seems like 4ish to 6ish hrs of work… It does get a lil warm but I have my plasma settings to change cpu gov on power events and that really helps… i think i could get more if I switched to sway or something. It suspends really well with only loosing a percent or two overnight and hibernating works.

The only things that aren’t working out of box are autorotating the screen and when the device boots up it seems to want to display the login screen on a screen other than the default. A simple closing the lid, waiting for it to sleep and reopening the screen fixes this. Or if you have an external monitor it’ll output there by default. I feel like the latter could easily be fixed as it feels like I need to default it do the correct screen and I suspect it’s picking up the touch screen device as the display… It shows up on the battery settings as a display with a discharging battery for some reason. The auto rotating doesn’t bother me… I prefer having explicit control of the rotation for my needs.

I’m using endeavoros with plasma 6

So I’m like a week in… but I bought an ‘p8 mini laptop’ off ebay as it found a sale cheaper than aliexpress… but i’m loving it. n100, 12gb ram and 512gb hd. amaa

Necro edit - forgot to mention I got it for 330 pulse shipping

…Windows me… Iykyk

Genuinely curious, can you enlighten me… I haven’t kept up with rpi stuff… Since… hm 3b I think. But my pinephone pro just crapped out…so I was looking for options.
