This is huge! Just integrating F-Droid into their mix package manager is really badass.

Because the only good way to autoupdate the Android apps is from the PC host using waydroid app install. But F-Droids release images are totally random and also not as secure as using the API. Having repo support is waaay better.

Isnt that just a semi working feedreader for Github and other sources?

Does it also follow the rule to not allow closed source API? (Notification,Location,..)

[-] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 1 points 1 year ago

No, it gives the user the choice to pull whichever versions they want.

I was curious about vanilla os but nows it's gonna be based on Debian and everything else I'm hears I kinda wanna switch to it for at least a month

Currently, been using it for the past year for work & school studies. Haven't had any big issues and far less when I used windows. Waiting for the Alpha to go to beta

Will they update GNOME like Ubuntu or will they wait for Debian to do it?

[-] Secret300@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

In the road map they said they have gnome 44 for vanilla os 2.0

[-] warmaster@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Damn, it would be impressive if they accomplish that

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
