pine64 is working on creating more e-waste, without any software support, woo, yay!
subtootish
@saturn pine64 consists (almost) solely of hardware devs, and they keep churning out lots and lots of (buggy) hardware, while leaving actual software support to make it usable to "the community". So in practice none of it really works well, and they just release new stuff instead of fixing the existing products

@f0x imo pinephone is usable but it would be so much nicer if they focused a bit more on software and didnt leave all of it to kde and like,,,, that one person maintaining arch mobile

@pastelpunkbandit yeah imagine they put more people on that, and spent the other hardware effort on just making a few products actually better
