      I think it’s the other way round, when the amount of interesting SW is rising,the probability of good HW will be higher. And yes, as we can see, the SW can be developed independent of HW.

        You’re absolutely right

        Personnaly the hardware is not the problem it’s the price of it

        I already saw them but they are not ready I think.

        (But you’re right it exists)

      Linux tablets? I have a lenovo tablet that now runs fedora, but the hardware is not meant for gaming. I think Legends of Lumia was the game that I played, but the sound was missing.

      They definitely exist, and there is progress, but even in the best case scenario, you’re far from being able to comfortably daily one. postmarketOS is probably the most consistently updated project at this time

      I used to love Sailfish OS.

      I guess I still do, but the problem is that while they recently expanded amount of devices they support, for some of them the “support” is just not what you think. Eg. I got Xperia 10 V just for the SFOS, but even though on their main list the device is listed as supported, turns out that camera, Android support and fingerprint sensor, these don’t work. To be fair, this info was possible to find on their forums, and I did not have to pay for SFOS (they offer 6 month trial), so they have nothing to gain from communicating so badly, but it is what it is.

      So in case you want to try it, just really make sure you know to what extent your device is supported.

    I really wanted to try developing for these. But after flashing my old poco F1 with postmarket os, the phone died instead. Now I can’t justify buying a phone just for this.

    Why does the site looks like it’s affiliated with Gnome?

      It seemingly follows the Adwaita theme popularized by Gnome and widely accepted in the Linux community.

      For me it’s a nice layout and I certainly get some enjoyment out of it being uniform with the interfaces I like on my computer.
