#Molly app has a socks5 option but only #Orbot "VPN" mode will work. What if #Arti from @torproject could bind with Molly on socks5 via #Termux?

would be nice to have #systemd like @postmarketOS

*Termux @termux
pkg update (possible to plug in keyboard and display to #android #mobile app)
then proot-distro login --isolated debian
su - user because Arti will complain eventhough phone is not really rooted, change etc/resolv.conf to cloudflare, add dependencies needed for #rust rustup and cargo on #debian #trixie, chmod g-w ~/.config

* #Oniux --> E0560

* Arti --> works great. Have not noticed any "anti-effects." Also works on #Alpine / #PostmarketOS in Termux tests.

* apkeep #EFF https://www.eff.org/pages/apkeep --> shared storage path, package manager chokepoint won't install

* network monitoring like Nyx with #tokio-console

In a way, like passwordless root in QubesOS. Some good customizations can be made in Dom0, though, unlike GrapheneOS.

Lilbits: Phosh 0.50.0, unofficial Windows Subsystem for FreeBSD, and Google Japan’s impractical keyboards

Some folks at Google Japan have a habit of designing impractical keyboards. A few years ago we saw a single-row keyboard with every letter, number and character laid out along a 5.4 foot strip. There are also Teacup, bubble wrap, and spoon bending keyboards, among others.

Now the company has introduced its latest horribly inconvenient keyboard: the Gboard Dial Version is made of rotary dials […]

Soy un fiel defensor de #UbuntuTouch, pero hoy tuve un mal sabor de boca 😕. No pude hacer algo tan simple como copiar‑pegar; parece que hay un límite de caracteres y, solo en ciertas apps, el botón de “pegar” o “copiar” aparece diminuto, casi imposible de usar. ¡Deberían arreglarlo! #UX #OpenSource #Linux #MobileOS #Tech #BugReport #Feedback #UI #Design #Community #FreeSoftware #AndroidAlternative #OpenSourceLove 🚀 @ubports @ubuntu

Weekly GNU-like #MobileLinux Update (25/2025): Packed with Goodies
https://linmob.net/weekly-update-25-2025/

This week really was something: #postmarketOS ship 25.06 (which, among other things, adds systemd) and work to reverse-engineer #VoLTE, #FuriOS 13.1.0 lands with Open-Store support (for #UbuntuTouch apps) and plenty of other improvements, #PlasmaMobile share detailed log of all the fixes and improvements they managed to land in the past year (and what's to come), Jolla announce free #SailfishOS updates for all #JollaC2 customers, I managed to interview #Liberux about their Nexx phone - but there's way more still, including a packed Apps section. Enjoy!

Lilbits: Amazon to drop Android (for Fire TVs), Fossil to drop smartwatches, Ubuntu Touch OTA-4 released, Lichee Console 4A reviewed

Seven years after Ubuntu developer Canonical stopped supporting a mobile version of the GNU/Linux distribution designed for smartphones, the folks at UBPorts continue to keep Ubuntu Touch alive and ticking. This week the team rolled out Ubuntu Touch OTA-4 with support for over two dozen smartphones and tablets.
In other recent tech news, it looks […]

@kosmoski Dla mnie wybór było prosty: najpierw sobie zainstalowałem właśnie /e/, przekonałem się, że działa naprawdę świetnie, więc gdy miałem zainstalować alternatywę do Google na smartfonach innych osób, oczywiście wybrałem też #systemE - bo był już przeze mnie sprawdzony.

A dlaczego pierwotnie wybrałem #eOS? Dlatego że w czasie, gdy sprawdzałem możliwości, właśnie system /e/ miał łatwy instalator (ang. Easy Installer), który umożliwia instalację systemu osobie nietechnicznej. A właśnie taką jestem.

Miałem już pozytywne doświadczenie z analogicznym łatwym instalatorem na Ubuntu Touch, więc i tym razem odważyłem się samodzielnie zainstalować system - chociaż dla osoby nietechnicznej jest to oczywiście ogromne wyzwanie. Już raz zbrickowałem sobie smartfon, więc wiem, że nie ma żartów i dla mnie najlepszym wyjściem jest skorzystanie z łatwego instalatora.
