Why doesnt anybody make a custom rom thats basically android just with a few changes reverted to make it more unix/linux like? I think it would be cool and probably even usefull.

Even termux with all its limitations is doing pretty great imagine if it was as powerful as terminal app on *nix

I used for a long time LineageOs, is not necessarily what you are asking for but it one of the best options out there.

Nice, I haven't tried that termux widget yet. Here's a Lemmy community just for android home screens if you're interested: !c/android_[email protected]

Sweet. What's the MOTD / quote app (widget?) ?

I thought lawnchair had been abandoned

It still is sadly. I think its still the best fullyFOSS one out there. At least for me.

Yet it talks about lawnchair 14 on github

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes but you have to compile it yourself

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

No need to compile yourself, Lawnchair is NOT dead.

Join their telegram group, they share Dev builds there. Or, you can install Gooolers builds from GitHub: https://github.com/Goooler/LawnchairRelease

Personally I use Gooolers.

Im glad to be wrong. Thank you.
Edit: Some features need polishing and some need to be added. But overall is a great improvement really.

https://wallhaven.cc/w/g877ll You can find great wallpapers in an app called "Wall You" on F-droid.

fuck yeah Arcticons! I always use them with a black background and never realized how well they work over photos

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Welp, now I'm gonna have that song stuck in my head! At least it's a song I really like :)

I love this setup! Thanks for sharing it with us.

Super cool. What command / package are you using on Termux to generate that info in the widget?

Its neofetch but called from a app that let you call termux from a small window. The app is Termux:Float, it is in the description.

Sweet! Thank you!
