the problem is firmware. the community has been porting postmarketos to android phones for years, there are a ton of phones where PmOS will boot but most things like camera, phone service or bluetooth won’t work because they are missing the firmware necessary.

I mean, I’m sure they sell Android phones in the UK. Why do you buy Apple products if you are aware of their monopolistic practices that have to be battled with legislation?

I only use wired headphones.The annoyance of batteries, the higher prices and the much shorter lifespan makes wireless a no go for me.

You can buy some nice wired headphones and expect them to last 15+ years if taken good care of. Good luck trying to keep wireless ones for more than 5 years with a good battery life.

docker images have a ton of extra processes from the OS they were built in. Normally a light distro is used to build images, like Alpine Linux. but still, you’re executing a lot more processes than if you were installing things natively.

Of course the images does not contain the kernel, but still they contain a lot of extra processes that would be unnecessary if executing natively.

honestly, it’s not worth it. hard drives are cheap, just plug one via USB 3 and make all the write operations there. that way your little SBC doesn’t suffer the performance overhead of using docker.

nobody cares if a random influencer wannabe almost mentions the fediverse at the end of a random video.
