I have Nextcloud running on a Pi4 and it runs like a charm. It has a lot of RAM and processing power to spare, actually. The good thing about arm mini computers is the exceptionally low power draw. You can’t achieve that with some old x86 PC.

I love my bike trailer. I added an aluminium box to make it water proof and I use it almost weekly for groceries.

They usually do if they don’t use kernel level anti cheat. But it’s a bit more complicated than Steam. There are guides online. It’s manageable but it’s not “click play and you’re done” like steam

For most users it probably just comes down to what is installed on their machine when they buy it. People generally don’t think about operating systems a whole lot.

I love KdenLive!

I have been pretty much exclusively using Bluetooth headsets for almost ten years and got my first phone without a jack this year. Sometimes you want to plug into someone’s car or home stereo and can’t, that’s annoying. But other aspects are far more important in my buying decision.

Explain what you mean by bloat please

There is also Mint Debian if you want Mint. But honestly, distro doesn’t matter at all to most users. Pick any desktop environment that looks nice to you and go for it.

Millions of dollars of pay are always absurd but this really puts it into perspective

If it were for security reasons, they wouldn’t allow work devices in the WiFi at all (which is a very reasonable policy)

Aggressive DRM mostly punishes paying customers. The game will probably be cracked anyways.

Those are rare exceptions and it should only be done after puberty AND if it can’t be resolved conservatively AND the person consents to the surgery. That’s something else entirely than doing it to children.

They are making an effort though. Every other manufacturer also produces in China. Fairphone at least pays the workers better and tries to make the supply chain as ethical as possible.

Honestly, stock KDE is pretty nice, i barely change a thing and feel right at home.

That’s true and pretty cool and I will always choose Android over iOS, but it’s still a bad system. I want a phone architecture where I can just slap an OS on there like it’s a PC and upgrade to new versions until the hardware craps out. But I can’t

Main problem is that Android sucks too. The mobile OS market is a burning dumpster fire controlled by two of the biggest companies in the world.
My point is I use arch btw and I’d like to do so on my phone as well. (With it still being practical)

Standard PDF reader on Android is small but nice!

For the same price, a Fair Phone is always going to be outdated. They can’t scale as much as the big manufacturers can and they (are trying to) avoid slave labor etc.
It’s simply not possible to be as cheap as the others who do everything to be as cheap as can be.

They actually support their phones for years. You can even still get most parts of the Fairphone 2 which was released 8 years ago. New android versions are provided for a minimum of 5 years, often longer.

They also source their materials and labor as ethically as possible.

None of it is perfect of course, but considering the fucked up phone market, they’re doing an amazing job.
