It would be largely fine, but be careful. Being immutable, a lot of things that you would expect will work differently or not at all. I would not recommend it, but if you're in for a challenge, it's not bad.

Open source is a license. What you're referring to is "source-available." You can't legally fork, redistribute, or contribute to it.

When you press a button on this revolutionary machine, it will automatically left click for you!

On GNOME, I like BlackBox, though Prompt looks promising once it's stable.

A combination of heaters and being mostly deployed in warmer environments, I'd assume.

They have an "Office Key" on some official keyboards. Pressing Office+L opens LinkedIn. The Office key is actually mapped to that long modifier shortcut.

Actually, the primary dev is no longer active. The other developers have moved to a fork called Input Leap that has Wayland support.

Maybe try Input Leap. It's an actively maintained fork of Barrier (Barrier isn't maintained), and it has Wayland support.

That should work, though you may want to look into Framework instead.

Also, KOReader adds a bunch of extra features and functionality.

Kindles are really hard to root. Use XDA Developers forum for this kind of thing. https://xdaforums.com/t/fire-hd-8-2018-only-unbrick-downgrade-unlock-root.3894256/, which is what that guide is based on, looks like it only works for the 2018 version and seems way more difficult and risky than most ROM installations. Also, that won't install Linux, just a different Android version.

Honestly, an actual ereader might work out better for you if that's all you plan to do.

You can't do that. Installing custom ROMs on Android devices is very different than installing an OS on a desktop/laptop. Most devices don't allow changing the OS at all, most of the ones that do don't have any Linux builds, and then you'll be stuck with whatever distro you're given (probably UBPorts or maybe PostmarketOS) rather than choosing your own.

I think their RSS feed has a placeholder title for this.

Vivaldi does too. It's nice.

From what I understand, their guess is that Apple is now checking if the device also has support for other services, such as FaceTime. Beeper Mini and pypush don't pretend to support FaceTime, so it breaks.

Their hope was that they got close enough to an actual Apple device that breaking it would break Apple devices. It turns out they weren't close enough, but they could be with a few improvements.

Because they can't break that. It's using real Macs, so if they break iMessage for Beeper Cloud, they break it for their customers.

Yes. Why?
