I'm using TelegramFOSS right off F-droid and until I read this thread I didn't even know there was a stories feature
There's a key point in the article that emphasizes that valve are indeed "being nice": their policy is " upstream everything".
Yes the motives are still keeping a foot out in case Microsoft decides to screw them over in some way, but they could (as many companies do) keep the improvements all for themselves, buy developers and make a closed source version of any of the tech they have been funding, locking down steamOS to only allow steam games and so on.
I recognize the level of the cover, is this an asset flip from the same guys that made mean greens?
Agreed. I'm in the same way mad as how quickly Canonical dropped support for ubuntu touch. Still lives as ubports but its not enough, as much as I appreciate the community effort, these kinds of things need a company that can liason with manufacturers for widespread support.
FirefoxOS lives on as KaiOS
There's people already using it like that: off the top of my head, Nick from the linux experiment posts his videos and podcasts via @[email protected]
Been there, done that. Start with something frendlier. I personally love CasaOS (its just 1 command you need to copy-paste on a fresh ubuntu server install)
You can fight physics tho: better batteries, more efficient LEDs on screens, lower size fab chips, more integration of components...
That being said as much as I wanted a zenphone10 I'm glad I didn't pull the trigger, after reading they're blocking users the ability to unlock their phones.
In almost every phone I've put a custom ROM, I've gained significant performance and battery life
Oh wow thats super neat, thanks for the info!
And they got some really cool experiences we could never dream of. There are now several full games running in browsers, with 3d acceleration and everything. Play-cs or wipeout off the top of my head, but also a lot of older pc arcade and console games on archive.org and new originals on itch.io
