Yesterday I fixed the Fairphone 5 audio on my Archlinux system, just for myself (afaik I'm the only user of my FP5 stuff).

@UndeadLeech @wrenix out of curiousity: what’s wrong with pmOS’ software stack?
@hsza
Nothing, it is a fantastic community and strange how fast there is.

@UndeadLeech@wrenix yes but the software stack. why does it not win @UndeadLeech over

@hsza apk is just pacman in worse. Anything pmos can do, Arch can do better.
The only thing pmos has going for it is out-of-box experience, which is not something I care about. I can build my own packages.

@UndeadLeech @hsza one of postmarketOS's goals is to use existing software and contribute upstream. As for postmarketOS custom software, they should be completely distro-agnostic, so they should be able to run on Arch for example, or Debian/Mobian (and indeed, a bunch of pmOS software is packaged and used in Mobian). No one likes vendor lock-in

@fun Apk being inspired so much by Pacman certainly makes it super easy to port packages over.
It would be so much more work if pmos was based on Debian/Fedora instead.

@UndeadLeech it's also inspired by gentoo and such, pacman wasn't the only inspiration

The part which is a little bit better in alpine/PostmarketOS (and maybe Debian based) agains Arch, that the packages for all the CPU architecture are compiled by one (alpine,Debian) project. On ArchLinux it is a mass to decide between archlinuxarm and manjaro and for the different devices sub/private project. Just because archlinux itself compiles just against x86_64 (and not for arm).Second reason against Arch is, that you could only use an bleeding-edge version, which breaks sometimes (because there is "no stable" version).

@hsza@wrenix Well I use my own Kernel and I've never had the desire to run anything but bleeding edge (I can always downgrade if there's issues). So this really doesn't affect me.
