LineageOS for MicroG

m1chas

I'm currently on /e/ OS (Android with microG integrated) and I'm really satisfied with its performance.

/e/ OS also (lineage + microG) = android w/o google.

Yep, I am recycling my trusty Sony Xperia Z5 compact with /e/ OS, it's an unofficial build of the OS but it works and it can be used degooglefied! Hooray!!

Using LineageOS on an Xperia XA2 atm. F-Droid is very impressive. Even then it's a bit uncomfortable that it's a tracking device. Been considering getting a dumb phone that is at home all the time and use my Lineagephone only with wifi and no sim-card.

Could be fun getting another device to try out a Linux mobile OS at some point though.

Back on Ubuntu Touch with a Nexus 5 (and a "pro" phone just for call on a Galaxy S3 on Lineage 16 without microG)

I'm using Android 9 (Notorious Samsung Galaxy A8, which bot updated up to Android 10) and i ressurected BlackBerry Playbook with BlackBerry Tablet OS and locked bootloader (no hack, no one chance to change dinosaurs system)

fabiomorales9999 We are a desktop operating system. This includes laptops and normal desktop computers. Not server or mobile. Those platforms have very different requirements and would not be implemented at all like Solus.

DataDrake in continue this topic: maybe need edition for old pc based on only window manager likes as i3 or Fluxbox. Errors with Mate graphics confirm this (proof: https://discuss.getsol.us/d/5428-strange-display-issue-solus-mate)

DataDrake

George That has nothing to do with the age of the system. It's most likely a GPU driver bug.

I use Android, but I so want something 100% opensource and privacy-oriented. Come on Linux!!! :-(

Anyone here tried the Manjaro edition pinephone?

Many people have been tinkering with it for a while.

there are missing some OS' in the Poll (and the option, to select more than one). I've some devices laying around here:

Android
BlackBerry 10 (one of the better OS)
WebOS (one of the better OS)
Tizen
Sailfish OS
Symbian
iOS

I loved BB10 and WebOS, but unfortunately, the did not survive. So I'll stick with Android actually...

DataDrake

Chrym The poll wasn't intended to be exhaustive. Flarum polls don't support multiple-selections, so you are free to answer with your favorite if that works better.

Chrym I've still got a Pixie, Pre, and a Sprint hacked Pre2 laying around somewhere. WebOS was by far my favorite. I miss the days of swapping carrier antennas around and overclocking devices right up to the point of melting the internals.

GSingh1994 That's a phone, not an operating system 😛

Chrym

Brucehankins yeah, WebOS was very modern and powerful back then, but HP slammed it to death. I worked long with my BlackBerry Z10, which had some ideas from webos combined with micro kernel, real time os and buildin security. Was a great OS. Loved it.
