Those are cool icons.
How is openbsd on that hardware? It’s been a little while since I used it with a desktop…

i use debian stable on intel macs and it works fine. whatever youre comfortable with will work fine except that some distros like rhel don't handle broadcom-wl right still.
i use 10.14 mojave (32 bit support), 10.15 catalina and whatever 11,12,13 versions are best supported by opencore legacy patcher on the particular device.
your 11.1 mbp is not officially supported in 12 monterey but because it has the intel gpu the opencore legacy patcher should work very well.
when you partition, use apfs for your mac side of the disk. it lets all your macos versions use their own volumes inside the apfs partition and the result is that they all can use the free space but can't see each others files.
whats got you wanting to use mavericks or high sierra? those are pretty old and i don't remember either one having specific features that got removed later or something.
It will never happen.
No one’s gonna buy a $30 cable rated for 100w and 120fps video to charge their phone. They’re gonna buy the $5 one at the gas station that’s only rated for low power charging.
No manufacturer is gonna put the hardware to safely deliver 100w in their phone charger. They’re gonna do the cheaper lower power option, and people already say the ones that do include this functionality are greedy price gougers for charging more than the $5 low power charger at the gas station.
How soon before manufacturers start stripping those high power delivering ports out of laptops because they raise the risk of permanent damage under a failure too high for the market/brand to bear?
It’s no fun to be laughing at the people who all wanted a usbc-only world and are now having to live in it but here we are.
You’re right. I didn’t tell the op how to get what they’re looking for.
I told the op that they’re looking for the wrong thing, which is more helpful advice than dissecting the difference between pine and postmarket.
No, it’s not like that at all.
The op didn’t ask for a phone recommendation and I didn’t recommend instead that they use a laptop or desktop.
The op said they want to donate to a Linux phone because one day they believe they’ll be able to use a Linux phone. They want to pick the right one to give money to so it’ll have the best effect towards that end.
I said they shouldn’t do that because they can already use a Linux phone and there are tons of other Linux based projects where the money will go much farther.
We ought to be looking at this from a completely different perspective though: op is trying to maximize the value their donation has, and that’s a bummer. They should just donate to the one they like and not worry about effectiveness.
The problem is color management.
Apple solved it by taking control over both the display and the software stack that drives it.
Linux developers only have access to half of that.
Seth should have gotten the Cheyanne
I replied to another comment with this, but Debian 12(stable, bookworm) and 13(testing, trixie) are affected by this but 12(stable, bookworm) has a patch out in the security repo.
If you wanna know wether or not you’re affected,
apt list libc
will show your version and the one you want is 2.36-9+deb12u4
If you don’t have that,
apt update && apt upgrade
will straighten you out
13(testing, trixie) has 2.37, but it’s not fixed yet.
E: Edited to use apt list instead of apt show.
12 and 13 have patches out in the security repo. Apt update && apt upgrade fixed it right up.

That’s not bad at all.
My 2015 worked close to out of the box with debian and a bunch of older mbps do too. if you aren’t looking for an adventure I can highly recommend it.
Since you already have your feet underneath you, a lot of secondhand computers with ssds can benefit from a “level 2” scan from the program spinrite. That process reads and rewrites every block on the ssd. I bet you could do the same thing with dd somehow but i just use spinrite instead.its my understanding that all the Intel Macs are able to boot it although i haven’t personally done it on an 11.1.
