@linmobHey, thx for the info on Purism's adaptative version of gnome-calendar. I didn't know about it. I'll have to compile it on pmOS (Phosh). I agree that day view is sorely missed.I stuck with firefox-esr which has improved a lot in the past few months. On pmOS edge it launches in 7-8 seconds. I no longer use Angelfish.What's that eMMC hardware modification you mention? I tried searching @PINE64 forum but came up empty.

@linmob Re: Discord web app:I've found that, at least with unit scaling, just closing the member list makes the UI small enough even with a fairly small window.My issue is that sometimes it just can't understand that I don't want to use video and the whole time I have the page open it's constantly trying, and failing, to initialize the camera which slams the mobile into one end of its track every few seconds.

@linmob It's really good but I don't even want to know how long you worked on that!

@jawshThanks, but this appears to be only for the software side, they don't explain what this hardware mod actually is, nor how much speed can be gained...I guess we'd have to comb through the Pine64 dev chat to find out. (Ugh I hate chat platforms 😒)@PINE64 @linmob

@normandc @jawsh @linmobI believe this is what you are looking for ;) Also for liability sake: we're not responsible if you break something from doing this. You have the right to mod hardware you bought, but this isn't officially supported. :)

@PINE64Thanks. This requires soldering (not mentioned in the pmOS issue), so that's a definite no for me.@jawsh @linmob

@linmobUh, unless I can figure out how to use that PKGBUILD on postmarketOS, I think I can forget compiling gnome-calendar-mobile... 😕

@normandc I can try to come up with an APKBUILD (but I am slow these days, so it might be tomorrow).

@GirthyChode I looked for a comprehensive link, but since this all happened in developer chats I am only reading and not contributing to, I could not really link anywhere. I am going to add the link to PINE64's screenshot toot (https://fosstodon.org/@PINE64/107233869420315079) now.

@wisemonkey It's distribution specific. With Telegrand, Fractal-Next or Spot Client, you definitely need a generous ZRAM setup because you're going to run out of RAM. I've written a post on that a long while back for Arch Linux ARM: https://linmob.net/pinephone-building-plasma-mobile-apps-from-the-aur/These days I am using more powerful hardware that also runs Arch Linux ARM to build everything Electron or Rust, it's a RK3399 powered ARM Chromebook by ASUS (C101PA).

@linmob this makes way more sense, everytime I saw someone mentioning successful build of aur, I kept trying to build myself. Thanks for clarification.

@wisemonkey I added a footnote to clarify my compiling situation (https://linmob.net/my-linux-phone-setup-november-2021/#2).
