"Grub is better then SystemD" Наука
Imagine if the Linux community had started developing for mobile back when Android and iOS were new to the world 12-13 years ago. We would've had a 3rd amazing (and possibly much better) mobile OS.
Closest you could see to that is sailfish, based on nokia's Linux foray
Well, I believe Canonical started working on Ubuntu Phone in 2012, maybe before. Unfortunately, it was abandoned. But perhaps canonical was too ambitious wanting full convergence with desktop. If they focused only on mobile, it could have been different.
I think the way plasma mobile designed the buttons, making it similar to Android, is the best from all pinephone distros.
Finally a good video about plasma mobile. Just what I was looking for. Thanks
already liked the video for the fedora t-shirt
I must assume the Arch T-Shirt was in the washing machine.

I’ve got a KDE CE, and my experience has been similar. Large amounts of lag compared to phosh/lomiri/Sailfish. Widgets disappear and my wallpaper resets. Music playback is choppy. Phone locks up and crashes quite a lot.
I’m very surprised Pine64 went with Manjaro Plasma as the default OS, but I hope the focus that move brings will allow accelerated bugfixing.
I think Manjaro's plasma mobile is overall better than KDEs version but it seems that it still needs more work. I am surprised they didn't go with Lomiri as so far it's been the best experience.
Lomiri may have been the best experience, except when you where trying to use GTK apps :D - which I sadly need to do, as long as there's no mobile friendly Qt/Kirigami-based KeePass app. That's what I prefer about Plasma Mobile: GTK apps work fine now.
I gave it a shot again and found that my experience was similar to yours. Still too many bugs. CPU load is very high. Things are very slow. Buttons do nothing. I did find that Anglefish was OK in terms of performance (I used the nightly build) but it's not enough to make me continue testing it for now. Better than Gnome Browser / Epiphany. Needs a lot of work still. Granted, I was running on SD so the performance could be improved on EMMC.
I still haven't tried Lomiri / Ubuntu Touch. I was not a big fan of Unity but if it's fast and everything works, I might have to give it a shot.
For the sake of testing, I've fired up an old Fire Tablet that has similar hardware from 5 years ago. Runs a variant Android 5.1 but in 32 bit on a MT8127B with an A7. Slightly better MALI 450 but same level of OpenGL ES support (I don't care about 3D). For all intents and purposes, we should be able to get to the same level on the Pine Phone. The old (and still supported) Amazon fire tablets still work well on this old hardware. Browsing with Brave is snappy and fast. Sorta blows my mind, to be honest.
Please show off some non default KDE themes on the phone eg Layan plasma theme
I hope the next gen of pinephones have better hardware thats the only thing that keeps me away from it
Well, drivers is the problem.

Yes but... the keyboard remind me Windows95, which is a bad thing.
Plus it looks to me very laggy, even more than other distros, for now at least.
Grub is better then SystemD
That does not make sense.
@Lucas Zhu: Still nonsense :)
Damn, this is slow and stuttery :/ I know it's pretty low-end hardware, but come on! iOS used to work on way slower phones and had the UI buttery smooth. Is that really a good idea to pack an actual desktop software onto small, low powered thing like this?
It's gotten faster and smoother. It works a lot better on the PinePhone now.
@@stardustspirit I'm curious. Any presentation anywhere?
@@dominik2327 ruclips.net/video/cW224e-4ZYE/видео.html (keep in mind that my pinephone hasn't been delivered yet, so I can't confirm some stuff, but it looks a lot better (in terms of performance) than some other plasma mobile videos I've seen)
update: just got the actual phone. it's definitely not the fastest thing i've ever used but it's not terribly slow either (also, i'm using plasma mobile on manjaro)
from my experience, the angelfish browser is a lot faster than what's shown in the video
unfortunately apps take a while to open, it's still a little slow (some parts are faster than others. the settings app is super fast, for example), and autorotation is a little buggy, but apart from all of that i would say it's definitely getting better
But you have to consider drivers. I mean, there's a reason we use GPUs.
Currently plasma mobile is just broken.
