  • I used to use ZHA and now Z2M, both work near-perfect.

    Occasionally a few devices will drop off the network, or sometimes devices may take a few seconds to respond to an action. But overall there are very few issues.

    I switched to Z2M because I saw so many posts saying how much better it is. In my experience, it's a slightly nicer UI, but the functionality and reliability has been exactly the same across all devices I use.

  • I agree with you. Purism had this same problem at one point I believe - turns out that the Wordpress plugins that they used for their site came bundled with Google crap.

    It's possible this wasn't an intentional choice by anyone at S76, but instead just spyware bundled with other components.

    Both businesses should know to evaluate their dependencies for these sorts of things, but mistakes do happen. It's good that concerned community members exist to call them out, even if they have no plans to change it.

  • The few good things Apple has contributed to the world (libcups) are far outweighed by how much bad they do. Change my mind.

    Edit: Ok, emotional response, it looks like this is just a rumor. But I still stand by what I said. Fuck Apple and their shit software.

  • Unless people pay for the hardware and software development to happen, Linux phones will never be as feature complete as Android or iPhones, so people will not buy as many, so the prices will not go down.

    Also, I gotta disagree reeeeaaal hard with the sentiment in the comments here that Android is Linux since you can slap a terminal on it. Excuse me, but where's the GNU?

  • Yeah both of those things are still fairly accurate. Its rare it gets hot, but it does get warm when charging or heavy use.

    The battery is still the biggest painpoint, but its gotten so much better. I spent about 4 hours on work calls today, browsed the web a bit, and am now on about 10 hours since it left the charger with 18% left. Not excellent, but usable if you charge it partially midday, which I normally do but forgot today.

    I am optimistic that it will keep improving.

  • I'll be a bit smug and say my whole phone is Open Source (Librem 5) save a couple blobs.

    But when I was on Android... K-9Mail, F-Droid, VLC, and Firefox was my most used apps by far.
