@ybon @postmarketOS How long can its battery last with Linux compared to its original OS?

@joe9nf @postmarketOS Can't say yet! I'm struggling with making the UI work without touch support atm Journey is far from ended!

@ybon @joe9nf @postmarketOS Such a device would probably work best with it's own UI written for it tbh.

@bart @joe9nf @postmarketOS that's a question I have, and whether it would make sense for example to put energy on bananui instead, cc @affe_null

@ybon @bart @joe9nf @postmarketOS Bananui is effectively abandoned now since I'm not working on it anymore. It was an experimental project and also a sort of exercise where I tried to make my own UI toolkit. Nowadays I think it would be better to use well-documented framework such as Qt for making a new UI. Perhaps someone is interested in doing this?
