Why haven't you ditched your lagdroid for Ubuntu Touch?

Pic related is my Nexus 5 docked to my monitor

(Took this picture with my Nokia N9 btw)
>>
Because I have a Nexus 6 :(

How does Telegram look? I was hoping the client wouldn't be half assed.
>>
Once it has a few more apps, I will.
>>
What is this. A launcher?
>>
Tiling touch window manager when?
>>
>>53738846
What icon pack is that?
>>
>>53739036
It's not as good as telegram for desktop but it's passable
>>53739054
It has all the apps you fucking idiot
>>
>>53739357
How?
>>
>>53739463
I'm gonna guess you're asking for the second question, it's a full Linux OS just like the Nokia N9 has, you can run all apps from desktop Linux, plus Wine or even lagdroid with Shashlik or ARC for Chrome
>>
Have there been any benchmarks done between this and current versions of android?
>>
>>53739486

who the fuck would be bothered to do that

just use your phone or macbook like a normal fucking person
>>
i want ubuntu on a fucking chuwi hi12. how hard would that be?
>>
>>53739872
Can't you just install linux on one of those tablets?
>>
>>53738846
I ditched lagdroid for Windows. I'm really happy with it, since the few apps I've been using exist for it.
>>
Because I don't have time for that shit. You neets need to stop wasting time ricing and be productive members of society.
>>
>>53741667
AHHHHHHHHHHHH
FUCk

>>53738846
>two chromiums
>>
>>53741764
OP cant' get enough of best browser
>>
>>53738846
Ubuntu touch is literally like windows phone, it has no apps and no users
>>
>>53738846
Can you set the dash to not auto-hide? That's the only thing that looks like it will bug me in Mir.

Hows the battery life? The performance?

>>53741916
Why do you faggots needs apps for either way? You can browse webz, take notes, listen to music and watch porn on almost any phone either way. What other functionality is that crucial?
>>
>>53741916
See

Not available on my phone

I will definitely try developing for it once it is. HTML smokes everything for making UIs.
>>
>>53741993
So your saying that Ubuntu touch is essentially just a touch version of a flip phones os
>>
phones aren't like x86 laptop/desktop you cant changed the os super easily without any risk.
>>
>I bought a $10 chinese phone that runs an old version of android and it was slow
>android is bad! >:(
>>
>>53743457
I have no idea, I never used it.

But if the performance is right and it does the basic functions well and has a respectable battery life, it's pretty rad.

I honestly don't get the point of apps unless you're underage and want to play games, waste your life on NSAbook, Instashit and the likes. Read tons of "must have apps" articles and still don't get it.

Enlighten me please, maybe I am really missing something.
>>
I would love to use it on my old S3, but I don't think they've got a working port.
>>
>>53738846
Enlighten me. Why should I get Ubuntu touch?
>>
>>53744106
no nsa bot built in?
>>
>>53738846
Does it work with the nexus 10?
>>
>>53744119
The piss coming out of my dick doesn't have an NSA bot built in, should what makes Ubuntu Touch better?
>>
>>53738846
Because I am not retarded enough to use it.
>>
>>53741667
I can tell if someone is a man immediately based on their face. These gifs never fool me.
>>
>>53744154
>Enlighten me, Blah blah blah I can't Google and act entitled as fuck

Phone Linux with desktop docking that runs a normal desktop DE similar to Windows 10 Mobile.
>>
>>53744106
users don't get a great benefit vs any other OS. For devs there's support for Qt, which is common, and HTML5, which is easy. We might see some common Qt programs ported to Ubuntu Touch.
>>
>>53741667
MOOOODS
>>
>>53743913
Replace apps with "programs" or "packages". After all app is just short for application, which is a program that does X or x and y.

If you want the whole nine yards, replace mobile/phone with desktop
>>
>>53744218
Which was ripped off of Ubuntu in the first place, along with Microsofts sorry excuse for a package manager, and virtual desktops
>>
>>53744609
Nobody gives a shit.
>>
>>53744609
Ubuntu is doing it better than uwp tho
>>
>>53744598
But there is a huge difference between phones and desktops/laptops. Running the same programs on a much slower hardware and smaller screen is interesting but useless. Productivity on phones is just silly and to do the phone centric tasks you don't need 100k fart apps.
>>
>>53739506
this is a tech bored where people talk about tech. full desktop convergence is the fucking future, get with the times or go play with ur normie macbook

Never tried, I heard CS5 works fine with Wine

>>53744889
Not with that hardware.

Is that a dare

>>53739255
The default one in Ubuntu touch.
>>
>>53744938
Anon, it's a Cortex A8 with 1GB RAM. No matter how well optimized the software is, it will be absolute cancer to use it.
>>
>>53738846
Is compatible with all ganoo linux software?
>>
>>53744970
Sure is
