  • Don’t get me wrong, I’m the first promoting an Android free mobile Linux, free of big company influences.

    Though, what I meant is that there’s very few mobile optimised apps on Linux, and I doubt that changes soon. The Android SDK is very matured (like Compose for UI). It’s fairly easy to create a good native app experience in Android. Less so for non-Android Linux. (I’ve developed apps for either) Think about that alone, which further complicates adoption, which TBH is just necessary to get to an ecosystem that us usable for daily usage.

    I hope that changes sooner than later, but the current alternatives are just not there yet.


  • You wouldn’t need it on Linux mobile because…it’s not Android

    But then you need apps that work on Linux (optimised for mobile/touch). You can also easily create Apps for Android without play integrity API necessity.

    Realistically an Android fork makes more sense.

    Though in my ideal dream world a Rust based mobile wayland compositor (etc.) will be the future of open mobile OS. I hope there’s enough (financial) interest to at some point reach that future.








  • Ok, right the details are a lot of work to “survive”. In case you’re really completely isolated from society. I agree with that. Definition of harmony is what I probably missed (I did not necessarily mean the romantic understanding of it), you’re a lot more dependent on it. I did though in fact live somewhat remote for some time (as volunteer) and did indeed thrive there, I like hard rather primitive work in nature. The exact circumstances are also important (i.e. does it rain a lot, is climate mild, is winter hard (heating etc.)). But… you actually do stuff that makes sense, as your survival depends on it. Not like having to fix zillions of bugs in an overabstracted frontend, having to deal with incompetent but arrogant and power hungry bosses and all that artificial stress we have put our lives in. Or having to read the non ending negative influx of idiocracy that Trump produces everyday.

    I rather like to keep things more fundamental. And I think if you’re up for it (i.e. active/fit, craftly etc.) it can be fullfilling. Obviously it’s not as romantic as you probably imagine most of the time. But I rather like to deal with this than having to get angry about society not seeing that our probably most important problem is climate change and not migrants etc. and not caring enough about it.





  • In theory cities are more efficient, than living off-grid, I agree.

    In reality though if you’re really careful and know what you’re doing (and are really disciplined and have educated yourself), you can live a true carbon neutral life.

    All the infrastructure in cities and everything around modern life is just destructive in so many ways unfortunately…

    And unfortunately the mass of people don’t care enough, to initiate the necessary systemic changes to make cities truly sustainable…


  • Counterpoint: I tried and I want to leave this broken society even more now (especially since societal enshitification seems to even accelerate).

    Though you still need social contacts (that you really like) to avoid loneliness, so in case you have that, it’s a wonderful, peaceful and healthy way to live more in harmony with nature, but it’s a lot of work nonetheless.





  • Arghh, why is every company thinking, that AI will make them valuable…

    “Let AI retrieve, generate and manage all your credentials”

    Yeah a definite nope, for what reason do I use bitwarden? So that exactly this doesn’t happen…

    Anyway vaultwarden is what I’m using, much more performant and self-contained, compatible to bitwarden (but you need to host it, obviously)…
