How does using the #Jolla #JollaC2 (@jolla) with #SailfishOS for about a week as a daily driver now (with my old #iPhone at home as a backup)?

In general, it works much better than I had hoped after my experiences with other alternative #smartphone systems and it indeed is the first (and so far only) system that indeed works quite well. Also at around 285€ (commerce.jolla.com/products/jo) it isn't too expensive, so one can simply try it out.

There are a few limitations though:

* I am really missing biometric unlocking
* There is no predictive text input, so typing could be more comfy
* The UX experience sometimes feels strange (but no no-gos for me)
* It is not a snappy and fast device
* Audio quality is so-so
* GPS really needs a GPS signal, so no WIFI-based location

What is great:

* It is a real #Linux, so it has a #terminal, #sshd, you can e.g. use the #Nix package manager etc.
* Android apps are running in a container
* You can have different users to limit data access

Unfortunately there are nearly no high-quality native apps so far and the built-in ones are very basic (e.g. email).

But: The #Android compatibility layer is very good, the system comes with #Fdroid and #AuroraStore (#Google store front-end) pre-installed, so you can easily install practically all official Android apps.

Most apps work very well, some (especially banking) apps do not though as they complain that the system is rooted, so YMMV regarding the apps you need.

In general I am really happy with this system.

And: All the de-ggoglefied Android phones like the #Volla will always still remain just that: A more limited Android. SailfishOS offers a path towards powerful native (#Qt/#QML/#Cplusplus/#Python/you name it) based apps.

I am hoping that Jolla will provide a significantly more powerful device option and that some of the problems above will be solved.

But already now, even with the limitations above, if you are somewhat technically inclined (but without the need to fiddle with a command line unlike with the open mobile Linux distributions), want to get rid of #Google or #Apple for whatever reason, want a #Linux #smartphone, support a #European company from #Finland, this phone is really usable.

@Nouso De #Spotify no, pero en #FDroid hay una app #YTDLnis desde la que puedes descargar audios o vídeos de #Youtube

Ásthar con té 🍵⛤ (Elle/They)

Estaba cotilleando #FDroid y me he topado con #KeepAlive 🤯. Básicamente: si no has dado señales de vida (no has usado el móvil) en un período de tiempo seleccionado, manda automáticamente un mensaje a un contacto de emergencia o le realiza una llamada.

Bastante bien, ¿no? 💖

@nico198X I don't think it's quite meant as that type of software. If you want a true replacement of Google Photos, you'll have to look into #selfhosted software for backing up purposes. Or if it's just a photo album app you want, you could look at alternative gallery apps like #AvesLibre (on #FDroid).

I use #Syncthing to back up my photos without Google Photos, myself. I've heard good things about #Immich as a self-hosted alternative, too: github.com/immich-app/immich

I'd like to recommend @pachli - the #Fediverse (#Mastodon) client.

They seem to fix #UX issues, regularly - it's currently actively maintained, as far as i can tell. (i'm getting my updates via #FDroid)

Also, it's the (continental) European kind of #FLOSS flavour. (It's Swiss-made, afaik - close enough to EU - well, the name has a Swiss origin - that's #EU enough, for my taste, for now) 🖖 😅 👍

@vort3 @ravi Basically you only need to tell your contacts 'Install #Prav', they will know the rest of the drill from their #WhatsApp experience to start chatting with you. Now try the same with #Conversations. They will hestate to pay to install Conversations. Either you have to convince them it is worth the money or explain about #Fdroid. Try this experiment with 10 of your friends after you setup Prav account. Please share your experience.

To people getting crashes when translating media descriptions, it's fixed in 3.31.2. Not yet available on #FDroid (3.31.2 and 3.31.3 should be available soon).
