  1. Still playing with the Framework 12, now the system is a triple boot, as I installed FydeOS in addition of #popos and #haikuos .

    There, tablet mode is working quite well:
    * with a virtual keyboard respecting the selected layout in the OS,
    * the physical keyboard and touchpad being disabled in tablet mode.

    Unfortunately, there is no screen rotation despite the option being active in the settings.

    As much as I don’t like chrome, I must admit the system is really nice to use.

  2. Ein modernes Betriebssystem für die Arbeitwelt

    Während Windows alle, vom Gamer bis zur CEO, glücklich machen muss, können Linux-Distributionen konkretere Nutzungsszenarien bedienen: Vom Server-System, übers mobile Betriebssystem wie Android, vom SteamOS auf dem Handheld bis zum Gamer-System mit Bazzite. Wie müsste ein Betriebssystem für die Arbeitswelt aussehen? Ein paar lose Gedanken.

  4. #FydeOS was, um underwhelming which was half expected. What was not expected was how slooooow it was compared to other OS.

    Let’s see how the new PopOS beta fairs

  5. So with the kiddo being sick and it being a slow say overall I decided to install #FydeOS on a spare drive in the #ebox. Here is to a little bit of excitement for the day.

  9. The Register: FydeOS offers ChromeOS without the Google strings attached . “Fyde Innovations’ FydeOS is a rebuild of ChromiumOS with a difference. In fact, with several differences, some of which may make it appealing to Google skeptics. Broadly speaking, FydeOS can turn any PC or laptop into a Chromebook, complete with Android apps, and it can use a free Fyde account in place of a Google […]

  10. This tiny single-board PC is designed to run an open source version of Chrome OS

    The XpressReal T3 is a single-board computer (SBC) that looks like a slightly larger Raspberry Pi Zero. 2 W. But the T3 has a faster processor, more memory, onboard storage, more ports and connectors, and support for faster network connections.

    Available for purchase for £44.44 (about $60), it’s also the first XpressReal SBC developed through a collaboration between single-board PC maker […]

  12. Very disappointing to see that there is no what's new in #ChromeOS talk at #GoogleIO this year. I probably won't even watch the keynote this year because no doubt it will be #AI this and AI that. Honestly, I might switch to #FydeOS at some point because #Google is really starting to suck.

  13. Yeah, I think I'm gonna stick with FydeOS for a bit... Most of what I do is on the web anyway & for those things that actually require an app (Email, Matrix & XMPP for example) I've got access to Android apps via F-Droid & the Play Store. Bonus is that I can use a local account with FydeOS (which you can't do with ChromeOS/ChromeOS Flex, btw) and minimize what data Google collects about me. Only sources of data left are the Play Store & YouTube as the majority of Android apps I've installed within FydeOS were obtained via F-Droid. I can also use Linux apps, but really haven't had a need for that subsystem of FydeOS yet. #FydeOS #Chromium #Android #FDroidApp

  14. 🚀 FydeOS: ChromiumOS with a twist! 🔥 Android apps, Linux support, and no Google strings attached! 🙌 Local account capability sets it apart from ChromeOS Flex. 📱 Install Aurora Store and F-Droid for even more app options. 🌟 Experience the best of all worlds! When a FydeOS account is in use, the collected data is GDPR compliant and is not forwarded to the US like in ChromeOS Flex. #FydeOS #ChromiumOS #AndroidOnPC #LinuxApps #NoGoogle #TechFreedom #yt

  19. Okay, last chance. I will try to make #ZorinOS work on a 32-bit UEFI.

    I should copy-paste the bootloader from #Fedora and redirect the EFI Boot entry to the 32-bit bootloader, which I suspect is the same old shim.efi.

    Let's see if my assumptions are correct. Otherwise, I will shove in ChromeOS Flex and call it a day, because is VERY touchscreen friendly and more compatible than #FydeOS.

  20. @leaverou There is also fork : fydeos.io and : openfyde.io, which could possibly keep existing Gentoo Linux kernel.

  21. 4) Αν όλα πάνε καλά, την συνέχεια του thread θα την γράψω μέσα από το #FydeOS
    Αυτόν τον περίεργο συνδυασμό debian + chromebook + android

  22. I may be biased as a #Chromebook user but even I have things I dislike about #ChromeOS.

    1. Having to use the
    #Linux #container or turn on Developer Mode to sideload #Android apps. I mean come on! If you can run whatever you want in the Linux Container why can't I sideload stuff into my Android #VM‽ Even #Windows 11 let's you sideload Android apps and it's a worse implementation! I still want to try #FydeOS though since I hear it lets you sideload.
    2. Deprecating the chrome.input.ime API without a proper replacement is a dick move on the part of
    #Google. One of my favorite #Chrome #extensions #CrosKeys is going to stop working as of ChromeOS 119. It's a powerful app that lets me insert #Unicode characters in any app, even Android and Linux. I'm going to miss that. Even if it's a security issue, you could have still provided a replacement. Android has custom keyboards so why can't ChromeOS?
    3. Why are so many expected features missing from ChromeOS? Pull to refresh is no more on Chromebooks which was useful for tablet mode. The eyedropper API is missing which would be nice for graphic design. There used to be a feature where you could tear tabs out of windows and put them in other tabbed windows even if it's not from the same app. That was really cool and I miss it.

    I could go on but this is already a long
    #rant post so yeah. I still love Chromebooks though. I hope it gets better with cool features.

  23. @dj I wasn't aware of #FydeOS

    Thanks for mentioning it. Not sure if it is something that I would be looking for or not, but may be worth trying on the #corebootbook to see if the built in sound works out of the box (it doesn't on most Linux distros).
