Been using /e/OS on a OnePlus 6T for the last ~2 years and love it. The built-in ad tracker blocker works well. GoS works for the best part and if it doesnt, heading over to the website usually works.

Rocking a T480 hackintosh over here.

Project /e/OS (Custom Android Rom) maintains their own version built into the Rom. Funny how I didnt know this and when I downloaded QKSMS just now, I was like “This looks oddly familiar”

No particular reason, honestly. Ran Manjaro for ~4 years and just wanted something new. A lot of trial and error installing and just wanted a fresh start with the additional knowledge that I had gained over the years.

Same similar story but was running Manjaro beforehand. Liking EndeavourOS so for as well!

Did have a Grub issue but after a day of what I call “constructive troubleshooting / learning”, was able to rescue my installation.

Just got to have the drive to learn sometimes

Been able to do this for some time via Adb shell. Nice to see a proper app that handles the commands

Been using it on my Oneplus 6t and been liking it so far

Agreed. Also from a Tech support POV, there is no “standard” OS and troubleshooting the vast different environments would be a pain. With Windows, you have a standard layout, with couple different versions - Home / Pro / Enterprise. With linux, you have different syntax, differnt DE’s, etc. Still use Linux at home / work but i am interested in it. Got to have that motivation to do so.

Same thing with moving to Lemmy, gotta have that motivation to make the change.

Perhaps we have different needs but I’m trying to get away from my @gmail.com account. Having an alternative built into my phone (email, pictures, calendar, writer, spreadsheets and others) synced across devices as well as my computer, sounds good to me.

It is only 1gb of space, but as of now, plenty of space for my pictures. To some point, makes me not hold TONS of pictures on my phone as I delete the ones I don’t want. Can desync if needed

For additional space, yes its kinda expensive. I have a proton account as well and beard good things about them. Its just not baked into my OS

Upcoming soon is a rework of the launcher. No details or screenshots but its something

Love that there is a post about /e/OS!!!

After years of “degoogling” my phones, been rocking a Oneplus 6t (love this phone) with several OS’s, but found /e/OS one night and haven’t looked back.

Currently using Magic Earth as its the default map application for /e/OS (mobile OS). Been liking it for the most part, but sometimes searches for a place comes up with results that are way far away.

Just switched to EndeavourOS about a week ago from Manjaro and been liking it so far.

Biggest reason for the change was my manjaro install was getting cluttered, and moving over to a new distro ( taking all my previous knowledgement with it) has been a blessing.

Beforehand, my Manjaro install was EFI, whereas my Windows 11 drive ( yes I know) was UEFI so switching on boot was an issue. Now both are on UEFI and show up within Grub.

Endeavor OS has bluetooth turned off by default. Thought there was an issue but nope.

So from no issues with updating, even with AUR turned on.

I just like starting fresh and setting things up with all my previous knowledge.

100% agree

Micro center carries soundcore products. Where I bought my current P2-L headphones, couple years back.

You’re right - could have sworn that they used it. NIffy website i did just found was https://osm-apps.zottelig.ch/ that points out the different variety of OSM. On a side note, I have switched over to /e/OS on my main cellphone and it uses Magic Earth, which def uses OSM.

Thanks for the clarify check -

Yup!

I have switched from Google Maps to Here we go for years now and been loving it

Check out Mull browser. There’s mobile version as well for desktops. Its lightweight Firefox without any of the telemetry.

Love my Oneplus 6T!! Currently running /e/OS on it.
