I like they give the option!

Since I am dualbooting just to be able to check if it is a software issue or not in. Then i dont know what I would choose. Mainly use Linux. It is fun when I figure out the headset problem is a cable were the connections are 20 cm away from each other since it is hanging from the table.

Even if they need special drivers for each device, they have solved it. Lineage OS supports tons of devices. How did they get the drivers? that does not matter. But they got it working or the project would be pretty dead. So the drivers problem is solved, now just make a good next-next-next guide.

Sure, Lineage OS does not support all kind of devices. But I think they can still have a common, user-friendly, installer process even though the drivers are different.

I am guessing that they will make a standard for ARM in the future so it will work like any other PC where they can just plug in any random usb device or similar and it just works.

Not sure why that matter. Google manage to run Android on the ARM device and we know Android is open source so just copy that over to the custom build for Lineage OS.

Also why not make a standard to solve it for all OSes? We have ARMv8 as one standard.

Somehow it is possible for both Windows and Linux on PC to get an installation guide with next next next installer click guide. You dont get that on Android ever.

Ideally it should be as easy so anyone could install it that want to. Today it is simply too hard. Alternative rooms dont have chance to be mainstream without that.

too hard

There are tons of things you have to do succeed to get it to boot Lineage OS or similar. Last time I checked there were no next-next-next installation guide on the phone. It is line trying to install arch linux without the arch installer.

Yes, I really want to use anything else than Android by Google. Lineage OS would offer more updates. But also possible do install other apps as I have heard it means rooting it which always is required to get Lineage OS?

I can install debian server on PC. No problem. But on smartphones you are suppose to do some unlocking of bootloader? Then install some TRWP or something to boot into. There you have some unzip tool that you have to find tree(!) files and install them in the right order and be lucky you picked the exact right one(WHY is it not enough with ONE file and wipe/clean is done automatically?). Then you have to do something about recovery I think. IF you succeed installation(I have never succeeded that far), you have to install g-something to get google play to work so you can install apps and get them in working shape. Then when there is a new Linage OS android version you have to repeat everything AGAIN. This is really madness how much extra work and hard it has to be…

WHY can’t it just be in Android by Google to just install an app called installer Lineage OS - click confirm installation and let it do the rest?!

Want to but can’t install it. It is too hard.

I am on Fedora. But i still have Windows dual boot left. But I dont use Windows 10 that often - I don’t see the need. I just have it as a backup OS. I have free enough diskspace on my SSD so currently not doing anything.

Your new account will be online. Can access OneDrive and everything Microsoft Online offers. That means anyone with internet access can try to login to it so it has to be very secure.

Windows Hello can be used for local login. But I agree with you. I would love to be able to access my Keepassxc vault during the login process. But that might be hard to archive so better to use Windows Hello.

It is insecure to create one account with username and password during the setup process. The password should always come from your password manager. But you would not have access to your password manager during the installation process.

Please remove this step.

The user can choose. Please note you first much accept another client by its fingerprint.

This is where the machine is hosted? I am thinking about the domain they used might be a different one. Example I would take where it is cheapest to host it.

Stop this!

Would anyone accept if the government installed a door into your house that only they have the key to?! Just in case they need to come in and avoid kicking the normal door when I am not home…

Maybe with different servers. But then you need a good aggregation tool and seamless experience shifting between them.

They are not suppose to do that. It is disrespect to the user privacy. Hence good opportunity to change owner. Just a design flaw of the protocol that makes it possible to abuse that. Gmail is just one single provider, but yes, many more does it and Gmail is big.

PeerTube can’t store all videos. Only Youtube can handle the storage cost by using ads due to the massive amount of users. But you could still have a list of links etc. for videos. Maybe stream directly the video youtube but never be on the youtube site. This might already exist in form of FreeTube. It only misses the possibility to view PeerTube vides as well.

I don’t use Gmail. There are plenty of email providers out there that is completely free without ads and privacy focused. Mailfence, Tutanota, ProtonMail etc. Personally I use my ISP provider that is actually pro privacy - Bahnhof . That due it is a niche and if you don’t save logs you don’t have the log storage cost.

If feddit.nu (only 50 users) did not exist I would have chosen to self-host it on the free Oracle VPS teir.

I agree. Look at email servers. It just works out. Email server owners don’t look at the content. They just host the servers. Both protocols are federated.

Forums will most likely be driven by the community and volunteers. Just move everyone over to the fediverse. Then it should be easier to find such people.

Tesla would be screwed the first time they see a new sign. Machine Learning is about learning from the past but if you don’t have seen it before you might be screwed. But humans can actually think,. even stop and Google the new sign.

Nice. The amount of Lemmy servers online are shrinking?

Do you have a graph for these numbers?
