Yeah, I don’t care to dunk on them, but you don’t exactly need a UI design degree to see that the contrast between background and foreground is far too low…
There seems to be a global option to reduce opacity, too. Anyway, I agree, contrast and readability is a problem with ideas like that.
Now, Phosh and Gnome look even better and more usable in comparison. But without Android apps or open APIs for all major services (to build native apps), postmarketOS can never be my daily driver for now.
At least, iOS changes like that increase the chance that the postmarketOS ecosystem will catch up. I whish I had the time or ressources to contribute in any fashion.
People here are saying that Waydroid works quite well for running Android apps on mobile Linux.
I tried postmarketOS a few months ago on my SHIFT6mq and for me, the dealbreaker was that I couldn’t get my SIM card to connect, so no mobile internet and no calls. As I understand, this strongly varies between phone models, though.
Aside from that, I did like what I saw a lot. I used Plasma Mobile and that was a more competent UI than stock Android, because well, it is essentially just Plasma with some tweaks. Felt a lot more like the pocket computer I never knew I wanted.
It looks like a bug to me. They have two versions, regular and clear, and they seem to have put the wrong one in the control centre. It is developer beta 1 after all
i think that’s the new apple os
Yeah, but are they serious with this shit? This is the liquid glass?

Wtf normally apple puts effort into their designs. That looks really cheap and crappy.
