(#mcoz7za) I wonder how niche the market would actually be? I feel like half the people I know would love a phone that didn’t mean either selling your soul to the world’s biggest advertising company or being locked into an expensive walled garden by the world’s most profitable brand.

@prologic@twtxt.net I’m not so sure there’d be a lack of good apps, I don’t think the situation on the desktop translates well to mobile. Google is pushing flutter pretty hard for mobile and it’s getting pretty good adoption, and it’s inherently cross-platform - Canonical are even using it for desktop apps.

(#mcoz7za) @screem@yarn.yarnpods.com Wow haha I’d never thought of Android as having much in the way of customisation options – though I guess some vendors add a lot of that sort of stuff. I’m not one to customise my operating systems much – I like good clean defaults and I don’t really like to change them. I love macOS because I feel it hits the sweet spot there, but I loathe iOS because it’s just too locked down. I don’t care for UI customisation, but how can you forbid me to install my own choice of web browser FFS. Or anything else not blessed by the gods at Apple.
