Your comment reminds me of that great tune by Pink Floyd.

Probably not what OP is looking for.

But I'm also happy with my Garmin Instinct. I use it disconnected from my phone, it does everything I need offline and stand-alone. To add tracks for navigation I just connect it to my linux laptop and drop the GPX file into the NewFiles (or whatever it's called) folder on the watch. I was surprised how well it works without official apps. The only thing I used the app for was to update the firmware when I bought the watch.

Also, fittrackee looks promising - thanks for the tip!

I would second that. I currently use nix besides Flatpaks for development environments but also find it somewhat overcomplicated. Looking forward to give toolbx a try.

I migrated my home- and webservers from Debian to FCOS a while ago and I'm very happy with how everything works.

Troubleshooting butane/ignition was a bit of a pain in the butt but worth it imo. I suggest just reading through the FCOS docs, they guided me well while setting everything up. I use podman on my webservers and docker on the homeserver (bc nextcloud aio is not fully podman compatible). I use the installer to build a pre-configured ISO that I can deploy where I want to.

Someone in the comments mentioned Flatcar, which I think looks compelling as well, since it's basically the same but more of a community effort.

I think this is a step in the right direction. Everyone can lose a portable device or it can get stolen, so protecting the potentially sensitive data is important.

I think what people are complaining about is not full-disk encryption itself, but the fact that people are not used to being responsible for their cryptographic keys.

I think we should educate people regarding this responsibility. We did it with regular keys we use to unlock our homes.

No radio expert here, but would'nt this at some point interfere with the transmissions if deployed at a large scale?

Does not answer your question, and someone already mentioned it in a thread, but don't forget zram when only 4GBs are available.

Step by step, it seems, YouTube is evolving into something that has previously been called TV.

Totally agree, that would be even better.

I totally agree regarding making it optional, but I have to say the idea of auto generating alt texts sounds like a really useful application of AI - no one really likes to do that manually yet a significant number of beautiful people rely on it.

To be fair, there are a lot of Flatpacks published by the devs themselves (especially in the Gnome/GTK ecosystem).

Sounds like a rather frustrating journey for you.
