  • I'm using wayland right now, but still use X11 sometimes. I love the discussion and different viewpoints. They are different protocols, with different strengths and weaknesses. People talking about it js a vitrue in my opinion

    • How do we know if there aren't a bunch of more undetected backdoors?

    • What is a good keyboard for android?

    Jump

  • Didn't notice that one. I'm using the first simple keyboard, from rkkr. Think the simple mobile one must be a later addition

  • Simple Keyboard on fdroid. Others have more features, but I can't switch. The swipe delete and swipe to move cursor are so smooth and I can't make any other keyboards work as well for me. I wanted florisboard to work, but it just felt clunky

  • My favorite part is a little after where he says he never said that

    • Your first distribution

    Jump

  • Arch was the only thing I could get working on my E200AH when I started. It's a weird SoC x86_64, with some non-free drivers. Now I can run anything, but the default with arch was figuring out what to do... Debian installer didn't have a mouse and the keyboard didn't work right and I just got stuck. Arch installer dropped me into a TTY and made me figure it out
