Attention people in Southern California! KDE is coming to town (to set up a booth a SCaLE21x).
Come visit us at @socallinuxexpo at the Pasadena Convention Center, enjoy some talks, meet KDE contributors, marvel at our technological… er… marvels, and have a good time!
@kde@floss.social @socallinuxexpo @kde@lemmy.kde.social @linmob oooooh I wanna know about these tablets and mobile devices!
@cyberlyra @socallinuxexpo @kde@lemmy.kde.social @linmob
We have project called @plasmamobile
https://plasma-mobile.org/
Pair that with, say, @postmarketOS
https://postmarketos.org/
And you have got yourself a free and open source privacy-respecting stack for your mobile device.

@kde@floss.social @cyberlyra @socallinuxexpo @kde@lemmy.kde.social @linmob @plasmamobile @postmarketOS Now that I can buy laptops with #KDE out of the box, I’d love to be able to buy a phone with #plasmamobile OoB.

@justin @kde@floss.social @cyberlyra @socallinuxexpo @kde@lemmy.kde.social @linmob @plasmamobile @postmarketOS As much as I love what they are doing, I find the device far from what other devices offer on the market today. I don’t want to give up so much on performance or camera quality, for example.
@aitorpazos @kde@floss.social @cyberlyra @socallinuxexpo @kde@lemmy.kde.social @linmob @plasmamobile @postmarketOS and that’s completely fair. I have a OnePlus 6 that I use postmarketOS + Plasma Mobile on for tinkering in the hopes of one day daily driving it.

@aitorpazos @kde@floss.social @socallinuxexpo @kde@lemmy.kde.social @linmob @plasmamobile @postmarketOS
and i use #sailfishos as a daily driver, have done so for years, full functionality and everyday #mobilelinux with a great community, but I still tinker and love to try other Android-free ideas.
