I hope it’s an improvement over OneUI 7 which I really don’t like.

Ignorant comment

Need to get tools like this hosted outside the US

Where to? Cracking copyrighted software is illegal everywhere except maybe North Korea.

Is there such software

There is an app but is also requires a dongle: https://chargie.org/

It’s (almost) always Nvidia.

A philosopher once said:

GIMME THE FUCKING SD CARD SLOT 😭

Did I say replaceable battery already?

Fairphone, Samsung Xcover.

https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_xcover7-12784.php It has a notch but the other features are covered.

The Samsung Xcover series only killed the headphone jack with release of the Xcover 7 Pro a mere 3 months ago. All this time a series of phones from one of the world’s top brands were available even in the US.

You can get the 2024 model and receive Android updates until 2031 because of Samsung’s 7 years of updates policy. Xcover phones also come with an SD slot and user replaceable battery, btw.

HEADPHONE JACK - I scream into the void

Then buy phones with them. They exist.

I don’t understand what the developer means by that: https://github.com/T8RIN/ImageToolbox?tab=readme-ov-file#️-foss-vs-market

they also offer KDE Neon

Not for much longer. It apparently proved to be a maintenance nightmare.

Kubuntu is ok for a new person on linux?

I want to install apps/programms via flatpak

The second line is the argument why all the Ubuntus aren’t for newcomers anymore. Canonical attempts to push users into failed technologies (Snap instead of Flatpak in this case).

So if you want to keep using Kubuntu over something like Fedora KDE, you are expected to learn how steer around these artificial limitations.

Btw, KDE are currently in the process of developing KDE Linux. It is not done, yet, but may be worth to check into from time to time.

“we want to be the Apple of the Linux World”

Funny that they constantly fail at that ambition, though.

I’ll just move to a distro that isn’t affected.

Just use Steam, Lutris, Heroic, and whatever as Flatpak. Flatpak solved the problem years ago. 32bit libraries there are just runtimes working independently of the host OS packaging.

It’s fine to relegate x86-32 to a sandboxed environment.

“Drops the Linux build to focus supporting proton” makes as much sense as “drops the windows build to focus supporting direct x in wine”

They could target WSL for Windows compatibility.

Heave Ho

Stick Fight The Game

All Sonic Racing games (Transformed is the best one but sometimes gets confused with inputs, you may need to delete a config file once in a while but it’s not a Steam Deck-specific problem)

Sony XPeria still has jacks

A good quality DAC connected to your USB port will give you far better sound than having a headphone jack.

Nobody’s advocating for taking the USB-C port away.
