@matterofact @poVoq to be honest it will make it more popular amongst normies. Especially given that Android is a pathetic experience as a desktop, so they would not care about it. However, amongst Linux enthusiasts won’t be as popular.

@poVoq @matterofact yep. Very poor choice to drop DisplayPort feature. Basically, you loose convergence. I was betting on a Linux phone that I can leave my laptop at home and convert my phone into one. Fairphone 5 will remain ahead still.

@boonhet @poVoq actually fairphones have the longest software+hardware cycle on the market.

@cyberwolfie I used postmarket with phosh interface on it for a month. I am impressed with its stability and overall experience. Most of drivers are already out. Is even better supported than Fairphone 4. However, it has no audio support. No microphones or speakers are working ATM. You can use sound via Bluetooth or USB for now.

Once it gets audio support I will get back on pmOS. Until that, I am also daily driving calyx on it.

@markkdark also waiting for a decent phone size to use with Linux myself.

Currently, I use a Fairphone 5 only because size is its only negative aspect. Apart from size, it has upgradeable battery and storage, decent performance and very good camera. As soon as there is another option at around 6 inch ready for Linux, I will sell this tablet from Fairphone.

@DerisionConsulting @poVoq even on custom android ROMs you don’t have full camera support.

@RecallMadness @poVoq oneplus 6/6t is the one supported by most of linux distros and also has close to 99% compatibility and stability.

@qkall @linuxphones @PINE64

is the fan really needed? as in temperature wise? or is just for fun?

@chiefbongo @Tixanou @velox_vulnus ppa is for system updates. flatpak is for app updates.

Human rights does not allow you to disclose the identity publicly. It doesn’t stop you from disclosing it to the authorities.

@bluedoves Do we still need more of this crap to implement a way to automatically burn old, untouched wallets?

@gunnm bitcoin might upgrade to monero soon enough 🤭

@haui_lemmy not more than any other interface. We need to have options. You would probably find less than 5% of people who will be selecting an iOS like interface, due to Apple being ferociously anti Foss ecosystem. But is good to have that option too.

@DisgracedDoctor Yes. Monero lost some interest over the past months. I guess the propaganda of CBDC works quite well. We probably need to wait until further plandemics are deployed. More people are going to see the need for real currencies then.

@GregorTacTac energy consumption is not the reason for the monero adoption dilemma. The corporatist propaganda is.

@GregorTacTac @n3m37h a regular bank has about 1000 branches in a single country to feed energy to.

Not even counting the central servers that process transactions.

@lud We used to delegate power to a smaller group. Now the group is delegating itself. That’s why today, you are calling it an establishment, and not a government.

The only thing the “normal people” must do is participate in the decision making process. The implementation itself will be delegated to a smaller group indeed.

@lud decentralized governance doesn’t mean there won’t be any governance at all. There will still be policing, taxes and social services. The difference is that in governing process we will all participate, not only a herd of politicians which decide the fate of everyone else.

Take example the Monero system. When there is a network upgrade it can be proposed by anyone on the forum and if everyone agrees it will get implemented. if there are disagreements they will be put on the table.

@lud decentralizing the financial system is basically the first step. Then slowly you decentralize most of the social system components: education, sick care, transport, food chain etc. At the end you replace the political law with natural law. Everything will be based on rights.

@lud @helenslunch Just because most idiots only use cards these days, it doesn’t mean that only criminals use large amounts of cash.

I only use cash, to prevent the CBDC scams from ever implementing. I also use large amounts. Need to pay rent, buy a car, borrow money to family and friends etc
