Note: Linux phones are notoriously insecure (source)

yeah, now I am not buying it lol. I wanted a daily driver not a phone for some habit :(


I wonder how Ubuntu Touch is doing, apparently Ubuntu has given up on it’s linux smartphones bet and the project is not officially maintained by Ubuntu now? idk.


Seems like Android which supports a broad range of Terminal commands is the best next thing.


I like you lol. btw, can I do stuff like control volume using Texmux? Like idk, switch on or off my wifi and turn off airplane mode and stuff



Android with a custom ROM. I won’t mention it

do you know of any projects which has good support (and reputation) which has something like a terminal in it? I mean, I just want a terminal.

Also, I will be happy to spend 500USD on a Linux phone just to support it, but I wanted to know how far they are. Thank you for your comment.


[SOLVED] Will Linux Phones ever become commercially viable and decrease to a price point of 200-400 USD?
Don't say, hey android has Linux in it, yeah no, idc, I want to know how far we are from buying a Linux phone at a price point of 200 USD. A Linux phone is one which is built completely on Linux, uses Linux apps and most important has a terminal. I don't want a Linux Phone for privacy, although that's a great reason, but I want it for the freedom it provides me. Hell, I don't care if Android itself comes with a terminal and has similar features to Linux, I just want a Terminal which can install apps, where I can write commands and it will execute it. Complete Control on my phone and how it behaves is what I want. I want to tell it when to sleep, when not to sleep, when to boot, when to edit a file and how, when to take a screenshot and what to do with it and where to save it, etc, etc. I hope you get the idea.

get used to interacting with bots, didn’t you hear, they are the future


I don’t understand, what are you trying to say? :(


I don’t know if you are mocking me or not lol.

I mean, just make sure you don’t reveal your original name, address, state your live in, your phone, your ip address or any identifiers which can lead back to you. You don’t know which aholes you are dealing with, so better to be safe.



I haven’t completely switched to Lemmy yet. I don’t get as much of a diversity of views here.

wtf! that’s no joke, stay anonymous my friend. What the dick that guy must have been!

But apart from Political stuff, I think the people here are wonderful and actually helpful.

This might not be an alternative to reddit and gain millions of followers, but nonetheless, It’s good in it’s own way. Edit: So many likes, did I mention I am somewhat conservative and don’t support abortion after 5 months? Shocking, now downvote me I guess



Even though he is a socialist (which I hate) I believe he genuinely cares about the issues he says he cares about, unlike almost everyone in politics right now, Bernie is honest. Donald Trump, well he gets shit done and is politically incorrect, he has the courage to say things that many politicians don’t have the courage of addressing (a similarity between both Bernie and Trump). And Bernie has not changed that much on terms of his policies, he supported gay men and women when it was unpopular (I loved this big time!), he says what he thinks about the Saudis and no one,not even trump has the courage to do this, he is a brave man in the truest sense. I love Bernie more than Trump for that reason. But yeah, both are populists, both are unlike anyone who I have ever seen, I really wish Bernie was president for at least one term, Hillary B Clinton and the Dems cheated him out of his rightful ticket. So fuck Hillary and fuck the democratic party establishment, also fuck Joe Biden too while we are at it. For someone who make a big deal out of the Jan 6 disturbance, Dems are perfectly capable of and are willing to steal elections and throw the will of the people into the dustbin.


I find it weird that I support Bernie wholeheartedly, even though I am a Trump supporter (yeah, I can hear them coming)


I can see where you are coming from but heck, after a criminal is caught, it’s not in state’s interest to punish him except for making an example out of him so other people won’t think of committing the crime.


pretty nice answer. You are right, many times that’s pretty contradictory.


do you think lemmy would be able to evade state censorship? If we wanted to that is. I really like those piratebay instances, trying to censor them is really difficult, even for the state (They can but it’s difficult to censor each and everyone one of them)


How many instances are there? I can if I need to create my own instance right? So, it’s just like pirate bay I suppose, you close one instance another will take it’s place or am I mistaken?


How easily can Lemmy be censored?
Being an old grandpa not that adept at tech, I don't know how Lemmy works. I mean, I know it's decentralized and it's supposed to be better than reddit, but still, how vulnerable is this platform from censors looking to block anything in here? Are we invincible like those thepiratebay.org instances which jump up the more you try to censor them or are we basically like reddit. In other words, can I reliably access lemmy in China?
