thanks. I’m trying to find a cheap 2nd hand device that can run pmOS and has 8 GB RAM and supports USB to DP/HDMI, was hoping this one was on the list.

did you try it with an external monitor? I guess keyboard and mouse shouldn’t be a problem

kinda like trillian in the olden days… not sure all them proprietary services are gonna let 'em use their platforms though.

right. I mean, good for them, but $600 for one phone is just way, way too expensive.

my phone cost me less than $100 second-hand three years ago and it’s still perfectly usable. it’s a budget model with several LineageOS ROMs available, so I’m good with software support. the battery isn’t like new but this was a 5000 mAh model to begin with, so even diminished it’s still good enough. I don’t see me upgrading in the next couple of years.

sure, I guess you’re right, seems silly to discard Plasma as a whole because one app is acting out, but I like the whole concept of getting everything and the kitchen sink and not installing alternatives and thus polluting the experience.

I’ve seen a closed bug report that’s been active for years claiming it’s fixed, but that’s blatantly false.

I’m not taking about some tweaking and burning the default config - install latest debian or fedora or manjaro, the DE automatically switches to e.g. 125% and there’s the dancing stuff in every konsole window I open, on every laptop I’ve tried it.
