Uhh no? Android is open source, from The Open Source Alliance. You’re conflating Google’s version of Android (Android + Google Mobile Services) with Android.

Android is Apache2 + GNU for the kernel. GMS is proprietary.

Huh?

Control of your phone does not equal Linux. Plenty of FOSS OS’s do that (including Android). And Android 16 brought Linux app support with GPU acceleration if you’re into that and want FreeCAD on your phone.

Android basically is a Linux phone, it’s a distro(ish).

It has a Linux kernel and a Linux-based OS wrapped around it. And just like you can compile FreeCAD for Debian or Arch, you can compile Fossify for Google Android, GrapheneOS, or LineageOS.

“Linux” phones in the sense you mean won’t be a “Debian” or “Arch”, they’ll be something else, just like Android.

Not to mention Apple decided to make passkeys Airdropable. Fun.

I worked on a cool projected called FedID: https://fedid.me/ that creates a distributed identifier (DID) out in the world, federated with AvtivityPub, and gives you a key you can sign in with via OpenID Connect. It allows the DID to have multiple keys for multiple devices, and delegate authority, so losing a device/failure is no big deal.

That being said, Web passkeys can be stored in password managers, just like passwords.

Yes, but in 12 months a Linux phone won’t even be close to where even 4 versions ago Android is. As long as Graphene (or Lineage, or Fairphone, plenty of models) keeps the security updates covered, there are good options out there.

True, but what I’m saying is there is an open model. If another community of devs wan’t a “Linux-based mobile OS”, they can fork AOSP like Graphene did. IE complain about Google, not Android.

Graphene works. No tracking, tons of FOSS and commercial apps, it just lacks some banking apps. One gap, vs all that exist between now and another Linux phone.

LineageOS is another option for other phones, also far ahead of other Linux ideas.

The available screen resolution is the screen height minus 48 pixels.

How does this help woth fingerprinting?

Isn’t the first just AOSP? GrapheneOS ships Google free.

Can’t you still script it with wmctrl and xdotool?

640x360. They claim it’s 480p. Maybe oy half-interlaces? Hah

Thanks! Been doing CAD/printing for a long time focused on things like furniture supports/etc, too. So I’ve gotten pretty good at the “match”.

I don’t think so since there is no “squish”

What? This is made up. Go to the Ask Linux community and explain where this is happening.

I’m ok with that. You hit a point where a community sustains, and is good. Lemmy is a great example of that. Often, when it grows past that, it can become… unsavory.

The reason this reminds you of Relativity is because that’s what it is with modifications.

Set of cron jobs that check services, then send a Matrix message if there’s an issue.

For the cron jobs, I pipe stderr to another script that watches those and does the same.

If all fails, and internet is unavailable and the router crashes, a Pi will toggle a relay, cutting and resupplying power.
