"You don't know that you need it, but when you use it once then you do"
@Lioh talks in a very nice @gnulinux podcast episode about her experience of running a tiling window manager with SXMO on the Pocophone F1 and using it as full featured, hackable, real Linux computer in pocket format! 🐧
Just got back from the local #tdose conference. I might have gone a bit overboard in preparing some #sxmo material to go in style. Fellow mobile linux project #ubports had a nice stand and #nlnet had lots of stickers to share, including a #postmarketos one.
#sxmo#linuxmobile news:
i fixed the wifi-sec hotspot creation bug, added a 'GSM Disable' entry and a 'Wifi Credentials' to show pw in text and qr-code of the connected wifi or hotspot.
and:
i decided to stop messing with sourcehut, #git send-email and upstream, for fuck sake, its so demotivating! to which email address? why did it not only send the last commit? where is it gone?
i prefer to use my time for features/fixes and to document them, not to messup pipelines of others....
Finally a #convergence solution to my likings and needs. A pocketable machine that runs the OS I want ( #iusearchbtw ), looks how I want ( #sway#waybar#sxmo ), and does what I need (Citrix for work, Spotify on the web, and phone things).
so cool to have offline speech recognition on #linuxmobile thanks to ideasman42 github repo.
next step is to create #sxmo gestures or even better a microphone key on the virtual keyboard to enable/disable spokenlanguage input. #postmarketos
After spending 2 days searching on how to show the mousepointer and switch to trackpad mode in #sway, the final solution to use #krita on #linuxmobile is way more simple and pragmatic:
Just create a workspace which fits the mobile needs.
The file open/save dialog is a bit sketchy, but so far the best image editing experience on my #op6. Including cropping and colorgrading.
As usual, get the setting from my codeberg repo:
codeberg.org/magdesign/sxmo-userscripts/
while searching on how to turn on the mousepointer visibility on #sxmo (btw. still not found),
i realize that instead of writing a hundred user-scripts... we have #conky to display all the needed facts on homescreen 😍
sometimes text selection just sucks on #linuxmobile or you have an idiotic wifi password on a picture and as a legastenic adhs kid you never type it right..
