I think the software situation on #linux phones can be improved dramatically by adding a new tag in the appstream metadata spezification like:

<mobile_optimized>true</mobile_optimized>

Then we could have a checkbox in gnome software/discover "Only show mobile optimized applications"

Maybe I missed something and there is already a feature like that.

Was gibt es unter #Linux eigentlich so für Buchhaltungstools für kleine Unternehmen? Vorzugsweise FOSS.

Something, something, year of #Linux on the #Desktop:

Ich hab letzte Nacht von Compilerwarnungen und nicht bootenden Kerneln geträumt. Send help! #android #linux #msm8909w

I wondered earlier why a generic #Linux kernel patch for hid emulation support did not apply, that should be compatible with the kernel of my phone. Then I tried to apply the patch manually and noticed that the patch is already included in the custom kernel I'm using without being listed as a feature. So happy that my secondary phone with my password manager can now simulate a keyboard via USB. 🎉 #Android

#Microsoft flavored Chromium is coming to GNU/ #Linux.
"Embrace, Extend, Extinguish" or "Microsoft <3 Linux"? 🤔

The Valve Index runs really great under #linux.
My only issues are:
- getting the DP of the Index to register as an audio device is very inconsistent and I can't determine what fixes it when it works.
- stuttering in a few proton titles. (Probably my 970 is too old and slow)

"Our software supports linux!"
"Where is the Linux build then?"
"We don't have one, you have to download mono-complete and pass the .exe to mono. Oh you should also install this root CA"
