#userland — Public Fediverse posts

Hallo zusammen,

@Danathar @[email protected] True! You can be #POSIX compliant and still frustrate any sane *nix user's expectations about how systems work, or do things in non-portable ways. Heck, I use the #fish_shell which doesn't even *try* to be POSIX compliant, but I love working with it anyway and the docs are solid.

I think the real issue is that so much of #Darwin #userland is poorly documented, if at all. That just makes deviations from the norm more painful than necessary IMHO.

@landley @DavittoKun *nodds in agreement*

I don't expect anyone maintaining, designing or building #CriticalInfrastructure to ever reach out to me or even use OS/1337, but if those developing i.e. medical IT take a look at this and decide to use a clean and minimalist #Linux, #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD or even #illumos - based distro with #toybox or another compact #Userland instead of some botched "embedded" Version of Windows, then already that's the kind of change I want to see...

I mean it would be cool if they used and contributed to #OS1337 but if I wanted to force them then I should've made some commercial distro akin to #WindRiverLinux or #VxWorks instead, and I don't...

@davew other #Berkman & #Userland survivors turning up? Thank you for making both of these #blogs possible, back in the day:

DeX is dead, but there is still #CompleteLinux Installer, #LinuxDeploy, #AnLinux, #UserLand

And I should add #Termux for the nice shell part and a bit of #HackersKeyboard

Since developing #rustlang #software #applications on #MSWindows requires the installation of 6GBs worth of #MSVisualStudio bloatware, I chose instead to develop it on #Debian.

#Debian can be installed almost fully functionally on #Windows10 using its #LinuxSubsystem.

And Debian can be installed on an #Android phone or tablet using the #UserLAnd, freely available via #FDroid.

So now I can program using #rust on both my phone and my desktop. With #vim.

No #gapps here with #fdroid and #yalp, but still do not trust. Also use #t-ui launcher. Does Google still get data from apps like #termux #connectbot, or #userland? ⁉️
