You mean NixOS? Well, it’s definitely not as polished as pmOS, but most things do work. My gf is using it as an LTE-enabled music player, and I’m using it to ssh into my servers when I’m out and about.
It required some hackery to get GPS and the modem to work, but then it’s mostly similar to pmOS. I need to find some time to sit down, clean up my config and publish it somewhere, but life’s main quest line is preventing any side projects rn.
If you can get it for not too much money, I’d definitely spring for it. Even if you find it doesn’t suit your daily needs (it probably doesn’t just yet), it will at least be a fun toy for playing with mobile linux.
Yeah, cool, thanks for the feedback! I guess I’m interested in both, postmarket and nix, but NixOS is just more interesting to explore.
I’ve got a Surface RT 3 a week ago, and I’m playing with mobile Linux on it. Not all shiny, but I’m very happy with what I’ve got for $30 / €25. It mostly works, and the battery life is amazing. It cannot sleep, but apart from that, it’s a nice typewriter.
I think getting 1+6 at a nice price would be great and educational.
OnePlus 6/6T + PostmarketOS (I run NixOS on mine but I’m weird). Seriously.
Does it work well? Do you have more to say, maybe a blog? It looks like I can get one as used on a local market, I might want to give it a try.
It is not good. I have the one plus 6t and tried pmos with a few of the ui choices. There are many, many broken workflows.
