        The "Mobile Settings" app was a bit confusing when I first tried to use it.

        It just showed me a more-or-less blank screen.

        Eventually, when I swiped on the screen, it took me to a menu.

        I think it should have shown me the menu immediately. (What was the point of the blank screen from a user-experience (UX) point of view.)

        But, either way, I got it working. And, tweaked some things.

          I was able to install the Tusky Mastodon Android client, using F-Droid, on the FLX1s Linux phone.

          The FLX1s is NOT an Android phone, but can run some Android apps.

          In fact, this post was using Tusky on the FLX1s Linux phone.

            I tried getting FreeTube working on the FLX1s Linux phone, but couldn't. At least, not so far.

            It installs, but — it doesn't open.

                I was able to install NewPipe via F-Droid on the FLX1s Linux phone.

                (Thanks to @Sturmflut for the suggestion.)

                I will take a long time to (manually) transfer over all my subscriptions.

                UPDATE: most of app seems to work, but I cannot watch videos — I either get a error or they don't play.

                  It seems to take a while for the FLX1s Linux phone to notice it has been plugged into a charging cable.

                    There is pre-installed app on the FLX1s Linux phone that works well as a Matrix client app — Chats.

                      Someone reviewed the FLX1s Linux phone.

                        Is there a trick to get the videos to play inside of Newpipe?

                        (Videos don't play for me.)

                          Hmmm. I restarted my phone, and now videos play.

                            @reiver Now if someone made something like this, but such that it fits a pocket. You know, a pocket phone. Like 6.5 cm × 13.5 cm.

                            Not a mini tablet.
