There are apps made for linux that don't work with android, and there are apps made for android that don't work with linux. That's enough for me to consider them different

Also android just doesn't use the basic mainline kernel which is what most people want when they say "linux phone"

I don't daily drive one but I've been keeping a close eye on it and here's my opinions: postmarketos seems to have the most momentum out of any distro (you can see device support here). I do believe it will be viable eventually as a lot of work is actively being done. This month they announced two grants that were accepted for 4g volte calling and firefox on mobile improvements. They are also working on porting systemd to alpine so that gnome mobile and plasma mobile can be run without any workarounds. Also the oneplus6/6t seems to be the most hopeful for a daily driver.

tldr: I don't think it's currently viable but work and money is currently being put towards projects to fix that

Oh I was more looking for suggestions of actual color schemes rather than how to theme, sorry for the confusion

Primarily trying to theme my window manager and terminal

I was wondering if anyone knew any color schemes with a pure black background (#000000)? Every theme I could think of used something lighter colored so I wanted to know if I was missing some.

The motivation is partially I think it would look cool and partially the potential for lower power usage on an oled screen.

Edit: primarily asking for color scheme suggestions for my window manager and terminal, less so how to theme

Bro this is a linux community, what were you expecting?

As a developer writing code who used windows to ssh to linux servers I would disagree. But of course it depends on the company and the nature of the work, just offering my experience

Every place I've been at had developers using windows machines and then ssh into a linux environment

It's decisions like the lack of client side decorations, a sys tray, and mouse cursor protocol that makes me wonder what direction they're going for

Can I ask why you say Mastodon isn't a good twitter alternative and maybe what it could do to improve? Sorry if I missed that part in the article

The idea is for games to be launcher independent/compatible with many launchers. If I wanna play a game I got on gog I could use the official launcher, heroic, mini galaxy, or I could even use no launcher and just download the game installers directly

Librewolf on desktop, mull on mobile. Currently using brave search but hoping to eventually switch to searxng

Here's to hoping gtk actually implements the cursor protocol
