Okay boys, rate my setup
(lemmy.world)
QWERTY keyboard. 2/10
8% battery. Charge your phone man
I cannot authorize a vertical primary terminal.
as a secondary monitor viewing logs, sure. but primary, no way
Super awesome! I was looking at this, but don't want a new phone right now
Looks like a palm pre.
Where did you get the keyboard case from?
It's a Clicks keyboard case, got some long-timers in the mobile journalism space involved and looks pretty neat. I'd have gotten one but no model for my 13 mini personally but they support a number of iPhone and Android models. (minor caveat but USB-C iPhone's have to toggle between data and power I believe - or something like that for the USB-C port built-in.)
9/10 With Ubuntu Touch for instance it would be a 10/10. Good Job!1!!
I need my GrapheneOS! I can't ever go back.
Graphen without any Google services is a excellent option.
I wish physical keyboards would come back. I suck at touchscreen ones
I used to hate touchscreen keyboards, but then I learned about swipe-to-text. Now I can swipe words on a digital keyboard faster than I can type them on a physical keyboard. I can't go back to pressing individual keys now unless it's on a desktop computer keyboard.
I use swipe too, but it often gives me the wrong words, and I have to manually type what I want. Also, it only works for dictionary words.
In Apple-land there's bizarre quirks that are in the swipe-typing function too. Try swiping out "white woman" or "black woman" for example and it "corrects" it to the same incorrect phrase ("whites woman" or "black roman") every time despite getting it right originally.
It's a huge shame that (in my humble opinion) peak touchscreen typing was a decade ago when I used Windows Phone 8.1. It's been a slow decline since that only became apparent in the past couple (maybe few) years to me.
It also works for words you have typed before

I switch between three languages. Swiping is ass in my case.
Same here, all nice and good when it's English, but then switch to Hungarian or Slovak and shit breaks fast

Marvellous, but shouldn't this be on UnixPorn ?
I open this app to promote my signal groupchats; I am unaware of most communities here. think I'll cross post it there with your recommendation.
Not saying that you shouldn't post here, this type of post suit that kind of community more
Android is a Linux derivative, the Kernel is still licensed under GPLv2.
That keyboard is cancer, I would love that if I could pull it out from landscape but brother eeehw. The pixel is already long enough.
Fuckin' A

You have my attention.
Didn't think I'd make it this far, don't know what to say lol
I like the idea of a physical keyboard, but I hate the idea of making my phone even bigger

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.

- Posts must be relevant to operating systems running the Linux kernel. GNU/Linux or otherwise.
