What icon theme is that on the Pinephone?

It’s Papirus.

Is this the offline translator in Firefox?

No, it’s a standalone app for online translation.

Check just check the wiki: https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/SHIFT_SHIFT6mq_(shift-axolotl) No one knows how future devices will perform.

True. I use the keyboard add-on because of it.

Ah, right, forgot about it!

You need a compatible phone depending on the distro. There are Mobian, PostmarketOS, Ubuntu Touch and ArchLinux Arm with Danct12 repos and others.

Right now the most supported phones are PinePhone and PinePhone Pro. Under “supported” I mean hardware support.

I have both. GNU/Linux on phones is not as polished and convenient as Android, but usable. I daily drive Pro model.

Awesome, can’t wait to try it out!

Ah, you probably right, I think it’s more common.

I personally run ArchLinux on my PinePhone.

I think when people say “Linux phone” they mean GNU/Linux.

What do you use to browse Lemmy?

Strange, doesn’t work for me, I also run 5.27.10. Will take a look, thanks!

Unfortunately, you on GNOME and KDE you don’t have org.freedesktop.portal.Screenshot method in /org/freedesktop/portal/desktop.

Ah, didn’t recognize it! I daily drive it :)

Screen sharing is different thing, there is no fragmentation there.

But in order to take screenshot I had to write different code:

For Gnome.

For KDE. It also requires special line in desktop file for security reasons.

For all other DEs.

Global shortcuts are even worse. It also DE specific and users have to manually register them in DE settings. In order for your application to support this, it should export such functions via the Dbus interface. And all this incompatible with Windows (my app is cross-platform), so I had to provide in-app interface for global shortcuts too that works for Windows and X11 users.

Looking forward to it! What phone is in the photo?

What I don’t like about Wayland is that many things are specific to individual DEs. Like global shortcuts or taking screenshots. In my app I have two different solutions for taking screenshots in GNOME and KDE using XDG portals. It causes fragmentation.

Does the phone on the photo use Plasma Mobile?

Are you planning to continue plasma mobile blog?

Sure, I tried it, but it’s not phone-friendly: https://github.com/lemmygtk/lemoa/issues/17. It’s hard to optimize the interface without such phone.

Thanks! I enjoy this platform.

The only thing that is missing from Reddit for me is a mobile-friendly app for GNU/Linux (I used Headlines for Reddit). But browser version is so great, I use it from the phone with no issues.

Just add rescue to kernel options (if you use GRUB, press e to edit it for the current boot) and it will boot into console from which you can do downgrade.
