I feel like a boomer in my 20s with the fact that I fucking despise having to pay 30-40 dollars a month just so some guy from work can reach me and tell me I need to work extra hours. Everything and everyone else I can contact online using my work’s PC or my personal laptop. It’s also dogshit-garbage because it’s getting to the point where most services entirely give up on their desktop/browser ports or websites because they just assume people are going to use their phone.
Instagram was like this for a long while. Indeed recently removed their “distance” feature and other filter features from their desktop version. Reddit is another example. Enshittification of the internet to put it all on a phone is awful.
I don’t know about the Pinephone Pro since I don’t have one (I was talking about the Pinebook Pro which I do have and since the Pinephone Pro is basically just a Pinebook Pro that fits in your pocket most things apply to both) but I would only recommend Pine64 stuff in general if you’re into hacking and tinkering with hardware. Any smartphone that is supported by a Linux distro like postmarketOS or Armbian will probably work fine.
i misread it lmfao
apparently the j5 2016, a phone i used to use, has partial support for postmarketos, with the only issues being microphone not working and brightness not being controllable. would be cool if i do that but my dad forced me to flash original firmware because “it’ll be very expensive in the later years, a collector would buy it!”
