you probably really shouldn't do that.

use fedora, arch, or ubuntu. dont use any of the pointless ones (mint, endeavour, manjaro,...). they are not worth your time. only use wayland (plasma, river, qtile). xorg is not worth your time or sanity.

simplest pick is fedora kde spin. just use that. hdr should work too.

what are you even taking about? at first you just insult free software developers, then you imply this insult was a meaningful critique of the usability of linux and now i am gatekeeping (you?). weird ass mf.

rp2040 can't run linux?

sounds like a skill issue

maybe linux desktop software developers should be allowed to develop software for their own use? after all, a lot of this work is done by volunteers. just because not all of it panders to the average user, doesn't mean it's bad software.

This product is not reflective of any trend in the linux desktop software developer community at all. its just a badly designed, low volume tech product with horrible specs. its main goal seems to be pice reduction and using as many buzzwords (linux, rust, modular...) as possible just to get funded.

please consider deleting your comments they are just pointlessly insulting toward free software developers.

i am aware that linux is mostly corporately maintained, tough this does not apply to desktop applications / software a non server admin would use.

Raspberry Pi with a display and 3d printed case? would be far more powerful and probably would have nicer software support

guess what, linux already is the perfect kernel for mobile devices, with android. there also is some work being done by kde and gnome to make wayland work well on general mobile devices. you clearly have no clue what you're talking about and are just being a whiney asshole for no reason whatsoever.

this comparison is really bad. consoles built with 6502s could get away with it, since everything they ran were games crafted in assembly to fit the timings to the last clock cycle. this product is supposed to run modern graphical software.

i cannot see a use case for this. just get a steam deck instead

the specs and the execution (2cm thick) seem reasonably bad, so i do think its pretty reasonable to manufacture in a small batch at that price
