I want to donate to a linux phone. I believe in linux and I want a linux phone. Maybe we can use one in very few years as a normal daily driver. It’s getting closer and closer every month.
I want to donate that we get there sooner. But which project? I’m following postmarket but I’m not sure if they are the most promising. What’s your stance on this? To which project would you give your money to accellerate it?
Edit: I don’t want to buy a phone. I want to support the phone os devs. Sorry for the bad wording.
It’s common for Linux distros to make changes specific to their distro. Adding and removing modules, adding custom changes, and offering those changes back to mainline. This is how Linux works and what makes it so great.
It’s not as though Google hard forked Linux 15 years ago and have just done their own thing ever since, they’re regularly merging Linux LTS. Here’s a diagram from Google of what that looks like.
MacOSX is a hard fork from Mach, which fits your French analogy more accurately. Android is more like a Boston accent; it’s a dialect but never very far from it’s origin.
Yeah, I feel like at this point you’re not even disagreeing, you’re just saying I’m wrong because you don’t want to be wrong. You didn’t even give me anything to refute this time. That’s fine, you’re right, cheers.
