  8. Just going to say it, #Steamdeck with #logitech #K380 makes for a rather nice mobile device to get work done. #DeskTopMode is pretty smooth and after getting #nextcloud client working I can sync specific folders with @murena

    I thought the small screen would be an issue but did a weekend train trip and was able to get a lot of writing done.Just need a way for the two to clip together

  12. Der Desktop-Mode für WordPress

    Im heutigen WP-Letter findet sich ein Link zum Artikel von Thomas Zwirner. Er beschreibt darin ein noch ziemlich frisches (inoffizielles) Plug-in namens "Desktop Mode". Die Begeisterung kann ich verstehen. Der Desktop von WordPress, der sich laut Thomas seit 2012 nicht groß verändert hat, erstrahlt nunmehr in neuem Glanz. desktop mode desktop mode1 Was genau der Desktop Mode tut, finde ich etwas schwer zu beschreiben. Zum Glück hat Thomas Zwirner sich um eine Bildschirmaufnahme bemüht. […]

  15. With #GrapheneOS announcing support for presumably more smartphones by #Motorola starting with with 2027 models, I can finally dream of getting a clamshell flip phone that combines good HW, a nice OS with a small form factor: #RazrUltra! 🎉🕺

    However, with Google's new #desktopmode rolling out these days, it might probably worth to think about large folding phones like #RazrFold which might double as a notebook replacement using a BT keyboard & optional USB-C monitor connection. 🤔 It comes with more weight, size & a higher price tag. 🫣

    My #Pixel8 will last a few more years anyway. It's more likely that the #OnePlus5 of my wife finally kicks the bucket so that she'll get the Pixel while I buy a Motorola.

    Would you accept the downsides of the larger #Fold in order to replace your personal notebook? Would you be able to replace a #Linux desktop with an #Android? Well, at least there seems to be a native #Emacs for Android. Unsure if it'd provide same UX though.

  20. Android devices can now launch a desktop-style workspace 💻 when plugged into external monitors. The feature includes taskbar integration, free-form windowing, and mouse/keyboard support—turning phones into productivity machines. How well does it actually work?

  22. All right, some progress in regards to 23.2 on 4:
    The latest build, lineage-23.2-20260218-nightly-FP4, now actually does display the desktop instead of just mirroring the phone display when connected to external monitor.

    The prompt on phone still shows just Mirror and Dismiss options. Mirror, despite it's name, enables desktop mode, while Dismiss just keeps connected monitor unused.

    Sadly, the External Display in Settings still doesn't offer "Extend" option.

  27. Ok, I see that there are some settings in 16 QPR1+ / 23.2 in regards to connected monitors under Settings -> Connected Devices -> External Displays.

    But still, I can't find any option in there to enable Desktop Mode
    Also, is there a consensus already about how this phenomenon is to be called?
    Years ago it was referred to as "Mobile Convergence", but that means something else. Is there any more popular term for using-phone-as-a-pc than "desktop mode"?

  32. Finally it is here: the NexPhone, a phone and a desktop computer at the same time. It runs Android 16 and MS Windows 11. While on Android, it turns into a full Linux desktop as soon as it connect to an external monitor. Wow 👏👏👏

  33. Community Idea: Desktop Mode via USB-C Video Out

    What if your Jolla phone could transform into a full Linux desktop? By leveraging Phosh, KDE Plasma, or GNOME, we could make this a reality—no need to reinvent the wheel.

    Introducing the Jolla Sailors initiative:

    A community-driven program where contributors help fund and guide development. Think of it as a crew of supporters: developers, testers, and enthusiasts: working together to bring Desktop Mode of other new future OS updates to life.

    Jolla Sailors replaces the Sailfish Subscription, offering early access to new software, exclusive discounts, and a referral program; earning you savings on hardware and accessories.

    Want to help shape the future? Join the crew! (This is a concept idea)

    Which means no desktop mode on external monitor.
    At least by default. I am interested to see, what kind of hacks will community come up with to get it working.

  46. Google confirms it’s bringing a desktop mode to Android

    Android was first developed to be an operating system for smartphones, but over the years Google has added support for tablets, smart TVs, and other devices. Now the company is also planning to bring a desktop mode to Android.

    While this could come in handy if Google eventually decides to replace ChromeOS with Android, it could also let you use Android phones like desktop or laptop computers […]
