  • Ah, gotcha. For the moment, I wouldn’t think any of them are in an amazing state for daily driving to be honest, potentially depending on what functionality you need from your phone. I could be mistaken though, I haven’t kept up with reviews or anything.

    Reviews where people look at what all is functional would likely be your best starting place if you’d like to explore (I see them pop up periodically on youtube). Last I saw, the basic apps were reasonably funtional but core phone features like calling people was kinda jank or not working properly. But this was a while ago.

    That being said, I think this is a fairly slow moving space at the moment. Hopefully this helps

    Edit: just checked and it looks like there are two linux phones comms my instance is federated with, there may be some useful/interesting articles or info there !linuxphones@lemmy.ml !linuxphones@lemmy.ca .ml is more active (as usual for linux comms, as they were the first instance), but I don’t keep up with whose instance is federated or defederated from them







  • Its all from one spammer who threadiverse folks regularly talk about needing to manage spam from (if I’m not mistaken about who it is. They change usernames all the time and I don’t keep up with their accounts cause I’m not an admin)

    The mods appear to have dealt with the issue appropriately. For me it only shows 77 comments as the “count”, but there are like a bajillion deleted comments by the same guy



  • Just to clarify, not the person who downvoted you.

    I’m a non technical user and have been using a plethora of extensions since my very first install with GNOME 😅. I use extensions to make it work currently as a media center, as well as just adjustmenting various aspects of the user experience.

    I have a wonderful experience with customized GNOME, it serves me extremely well quite frankly. If I, a fairly non-technical (by linux standards) art and design nerd am having a great experience customizing things, I think it’s safe to say other people might also get value out of, and be happy with GNOME after having made some adjustments.

    I generally stick fairly close to the original ux these days, but I’ve straight up never used or wanted to use GNOME with no extensions or modifications. Which from hearing other people talk about it, I think is actually extremely common 😅
