Gentoo on phone:
featuring:
- the experience of pain - now portable
- compiling a single package using 8 phones and distcc
- waiting
- recompiling kernel and then wondering how it went wrong
- reading manuals 24/7 using a different phone
all of this and more for the admireable price of your sanity
The issue is that many of them don’t display correctly, like part of the app is cut off and there’s no scroll bar. The repo apps aren’t optimized for a phone’s screen dimensions. I say this as a proud Pinephone owner running Mobian as we speak. Linux phones would benefit greatly from phone-optimized apps but that will obviously take quite a bit of time to get there.
The Pinephone with Linux is like the PC with Linux, not everyone will be satisfied, just like a PC with Windows or OSX or a smartphone with Android. Any issue has the potential to be a catalyst for new software. Simply, a device that opens some new possibilities is what we have. Sxmo is a good example of this.
