From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

But are the sensors not third party, generally Sony or zeiss?
Pure pain, similar with graphene, the pixel camera is a selling point and it is sbite on graphene.
There if a foss pixel camera app that does a good job though
Right. But the processing pipeline is not. If you took one single image from the sensor of the pixel or iPhone it would look like ass compared to what the processed one looks like. The poeple capable of writing those pipelines don’t typically do it for free.
Interesting, is it called the camera processing pipeline? Id be interested in reading some more and seeing if there is a foss project
OpenCamera? Used it for years but on my FP5 the auto brightness / exposure is only working 10% of the time 😭
Its just slow and blurry on pixel 10 pro
Shutter times are ridiculous on mine. The preview will be perfectly focused already, but then it takes a good second to actually capture, by that time it might already have lost focus. Capture resolution aside, it's literally faster to screenshot the preview. And got into an argument with a friend once because the shutter time made miss a shot.
