I would like to see if the use of their API increased.

If you enjoy using older, less powerful computers, it’s important to find a Linux distribution that can accommodate the limited resources. While extremely stripped-down distributions like Tinycore might seem appealing, they often lack the functionality and ease of use that come with more comprehensive distributions.
Instead, I would recommend learning how to use a window manager and forgoing a desktop manager. This approach allows you to maintain a lightweight system without sacrificing too much functionality.
When it comes to choosing a distribution, some are more bloated than others, so it’s crucial to find one that offers a degree of flexibility during the installation process. In this regard, Debian is a great choice.
You can install Debian as a server, which will provide a minimal base system. From there, you can install a window manager and only the essential packages you need. This way, you can keep your system lean and efficient, perfect for older, low-powered computers.
I must do something for my noodle arms problem then 😅
thank you!
I’d be very thankful for an example of your setup. I’m using Bitwardern for browser-related password management, but for convenience scripts I load the credentials as env vars at login through .bash_profile
😅
I’m genuinely intrigued by the potential use cases for this Linux tablet.
In my opinion:
For casual tech activities, I have a Pinephone with a keyboard. Despite the phone’s lack of power and the keyboard’s quality, its portability and form factor are hard to beat.

I don’t know how others are using chatGPT for coding, but I found I get the best results when starting small and iterate over the results few times. Like:
I use it mostly for Typescript, Bash and Clojure and results vary from good to OK (Clojure). The whole process is way faster if you use a tool like sGPT.
The Linux community is indeed remarkable, but the multitude of available distributions can sometimes give an impression of fragmentation. When you discover the distribution that best fits your needs, it’s important to remember not to take it personally. Avoid developing a bias towards your chosen distribution as it could potentially lead to unnecessary conflicts with others who prefer different distributions within the community.
Not really. I use it without SIM card, with the extra battery housed in the keyboard I have to plug it every 2 days.
It did not get my setup right. I guess that newsboat+PostmarketOS+Pinephone is exotic enough.
