In around two weeks I’m migrating from iOS to a postmarketOS phone.

@stovis oh that looks cool, thanks!

@luana Go to Flathub. It has a mobile friendly section. Also, dont be afraid to use PWA apps. They work well.

[luana@wetdry.world]

@hsza as I mentioned I’m getting nix and system-manager on it, so unless the openrc family gets a feature-complete systemd-compatible implementation that’ll unfortunately be a no

for email i've used geary before and it's alright . there's also merkuro mail if you prefer something qt based , but i generally find that gtk apps perform a bit better ( just a rule of thumb , not always true )
dino is probably your best bet for xmpp , it's not perfect but it's what i've found to be the most usable .
there's armcord for discord , for signal there's flare
there's pika backup , which is pretty nice
for the keyboard , you could try stevia instead of plasma-keyboard ? ( or maliit2 maybe ? ) there's also ways to get android keyboard working with atl but i haven't figured that out yet .
for bitwarden , there's not really a good option besides just like the browser extension for firefox .
there is a pinetime compatible app if that's what you mean , but there's not a generic gadgetbridge port , that is very much android specific .
for reminders , there's merkuro calendar if you prefer qt apps ! and for gtk , there's planify ( disclosure , i have not tried this one out personally )
there's not like , any good mobile optimized mobile editor for linux . onlyoffice is sorta the best it gets in this regard and it's still not great .

i have not tried nix home-manager yet since my phone isn't really powerful enough for it , but if u get it working i'd love to know lol

hope this helps !

@allpurposemat
I am the maintainer of BitRitter, can you elaborate (in DM/here/issue) what is happening? I am sure we can work it out.

OT: for tasks i use Planify, works good with my nextcloud CalDAV sync.

@luana For Telegram Telegram Desktop works great, and there is a fork of Signal Desktop that makes it mobile friendly, you could use WhatsApp using atl (Android Translation Layer) but that's not perfect yet, also keep in mind battery life is not great unless you use something like mobile-power-saver, i have it packaged here but i didn't have the time to send it to upstream yet (it only works with systemd) https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/panpanpanpan/pmaports/-/tree/mobile-power-saver

[luana@wetdry.world]

@pan someone mentioned an ATL for WhatsApp flatpak in a DM, I’ll try it out! Didn’t know there were already that many apps working with ATL.

Is it possible to get notifications with ATL apps at all?

[pan@social.treehouse.systems]

@luana Yes!, notifications works and it's easy to try it out with https://gitlab.com/julianwi/atl_flatpaks (whatsapp needs some out of tree patches that are not there yet, but it works)

[rodolforg@mastodon.online]

@luana please ler me know what mobile you are getting. I'm looking for onde too.

[luana@wetdry.world]

@rodolforg Fairphone 6. Hopefully I can learn something about drivers and help them getting the cameras and audio to work lmao

[rodolforg@mastodon.online]

@luana oh I think it wouldn't work on my country...

[luana@wetdry.world]

@rodolforg hmmm which country?

[rodolforg@mastodon.online]

@luana Brasil

[fun@berkeley.edu.pl]

@luana really nice! Just need to keep in mind, that you might want to keep a second phone around for calls, since that is still not very reliable at the moment, but hopefully that'll change soon.

Have fun!
