  • I have eOS on the fairphone 5, and I have had zero problems with banking apps and the like.

    That doesn’t mean you won’t have problems though, I don’t use many of those kinds of apps other than a bank authentication app, and a few others for public transit tickets, etc. I also live in europe, milage may vary elsewhere.

    Keep in mind that eOS IS android, just with google telemetry removed. You can add a google account if you want/need to, at which point any android app should work as expected. That of course defeats the purpose somewhat, but even then eOS will still help you stay as private as possible by informing you about app trackers and using alternative services for location, etc.











  • THIS IS AWESOME!!! I’ve been working on using an obsidian vault and a podman ollama container to do something similar, with VSCodium + continue as middleware. But this! This looks to me like it is far superior to what I have cobbled together.

    I will study your codeberg repo, and see if I can use your conductor with my ollama instance and vault program. I just registered at codeberg, if I make any progress I will contact you there, and you can do with it what you like.

    On an unrelated note, you can download wikipedia. Might work well in conjunction with your conductor.

  • Hell yeah.

    I am the IT guy in my family, I have a bunch of S7s for the wife and kids with eOS, and everybody is more then happy with them.

    I got a fairphone 5 a awhile ago for myself, and while it did cost €600+, I wanted the modularity and reparability, I just wanted to support that type of company and try it out. Hopefully I will have it for 10 years or so.






  • I have a Fairphone 5 with eOS, and I’m happy. Their service is painfully slow, but otherwise professional and reliable. You can run into headaches when flashing eOS if you are not super-cautious (dm mefor details if you like), but the instructions are good, and you can also buy various phones direct from Murena with eOS already installed.
