Didn't know about them, cool!
First time hear about it, but sounds very cool!
Iβd actually recommend you to consider the whereabouts of the respective support centers before you buy a device
Totally agree, I take this into consideration. Tuxedo is very attractive to me because we planning to visit Germany personally. But I will take a look at NovaCustom as well since it's in EU.
From Star Labs their StarLite tablet looks very attractive. Right now I considering buying a tablet for drawing and a laptop for 3D modeling instead of 2-in-1.
Agree! That's why we are looking for something for a manufacturer support. We don't consider used market only because thinking about something powerful.
I have a SteamDeck and very satisfied with how GNU/Linux runs on it. Windows even run worse on it π
Thanks, will take a look!
We looked for convertible because planning to travel a lot. But judging by what others say, it's probably better to have a dedicated device for drawing...
Does linux support from manufacturer really matter?
Not really, but from my experience Linux on laptops sometimes have issues with things like battery life.
I have a SteamDeck to compare and it works just perfect, this is why I were looking at manufacturer support.
Thanks! Yes, she interested only in modeling. Cycles needed more for cool showcases π Will take a look at System76.
Yeah, I have an Nvidia GPU on my desktop and I regret that I didn't buy an AMD card.
We looking for a laptop with good manufacturer support because they quite often have either battery or sleep issues.
Thanks!
We just planning to travel a lot soon and wanted to avoid carry a lot of stuff with us. But you probably right, it's better to have a dedicated device...

Bought a Retroid Pocket Mini

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/22613952
I just wanted a pocketable device, so I decided to pick Mini over 5.
Originally, I wanted to order the white color but ended up choosing the black one because it makes the bezels and pillar boxes blend into the case. It also looks like a small SteamDeck π
When I'm not programming, I'm playing GTA III on it and earning RetroAchievements π

Crow Translate 3.1.0 is out!
(apps.kde.org)
It's an app for translating and speaking text using Mozhi.
We've added automatic selection for the fastest instance and fixed some bugs.
My next plan is to port it to Qt6. I try to get to it during my winter vacation. I'm just currently focused on a FOSS life simulation game. If anyone wants to help with the migration, PRs are welcome!
Works both on desktops and mobile Linux. Here is a screenshot of the app running on my PinePhone Pro:

Recently discovered this project. Looks very interested. The screenshot on GitLab is outdated, here is a more recent one:

You need a compatible phone depending on the distro. There are Mobian, PostmarketOS, Ubuntu Touch and ArchLinux Arm with Danct12 repos and others.
Right now the most supported phones are PinePhone and PinePhone Pro. Under "supported" I mean hardware support.
I have both. GNU/Linux on phones is not as polished and convenient as Android, but usable. I daily drive Pro model.
I think proprietary Electron apps better run in browser anyway because of trackers that you can disable via extensions.
If you are still interesting in Linux phone, consider looking at PinePhone Pro. I would recommend it only for experience users and the phone experience is far from Android, but software is catching up. Check @linuxphones
P.S. writing this comment from PPP :)

Thanks for the suggestion, eGPU sounds nice!
We don't planning to actually work on the go, just planning to travel a lot. eGPU could be considered portable. Maybe we even don't need a laptop, just a mini PC π€
