For real so strange
Dude wtf. I had a dream last night where my phone was able to generate smells.
I forgot about it until I read this post. Wow. It's actually crazy.
I get it that Google is being in appropriately intrusive here.
But honestly outside the privacy bubble most people won't really care about it. In fact they'd be happy to have it automatically installed for them.
I get it that we don't like it. But most of the population don't seem to care.
Also is this like a separate app or is it baked into Google services?
Not op.
Basically apps like Photoshop, DaVinci Resolve.
DaVinci Resolve for some reason simply doesn't want to work on my Linux instance. Plus it's playback is way slower compared to windows. My pc has weak specs so it's not really Linux's fault. Plus it says my GPU isn't supported in DaVinci on Linux while it does on Windows.
VST plug-ins for DAW.
Games like Valorant doesn't run on Linux.
I like Linux. But devs don't want to support Linux at the moment because of low market share.
Some apps need to be natively available on Linux. Wine isn't sufficient for running windows apps a lot of times. Especially in a professional setting.
Hopefully Linux market share increases in the future. It'll drive developers to write Linux native apps.
Would be sick to fully switch to Linux. Waiting for that day.
They have sandboxed Google services if you need it. But kind of defeats the purpose of Grpahene OS.
I have been on Calyx for a year now. Bank apps in my country totally works with microg.
I have been using Aurora Store as my primary App Store for over a year now. Never had issues with using it with a VPN.
Why does it have to be so heavy
If you got crypto Bitrefill provides gift cards.
The industry should resort to Resolve as a default. Tired of Adobe's bullshit.
Have you tried phtn.app? It's gorgeous.
