Guys, this is it. KDE are working on a mobile OS.

Looks nice but how many clocks I can use at the same time? That's the real question.
this would be cool ... if phones had any support for OSes outside of Android. Even Ubuntu can't take off
b-but kde is too heavy for my i7
how is it not going to implode on my phone?

Either you are lying or you ocmpletely fucked up your system.

I guess it's more of his GPU. On AMD drivers it's a pretty crappy experience. My 280x can't just handle it well.
And it's going to be as relevant as Ubuntu Touch and Sailfish OS.
How about you actually make KDE worth using on the desktop side first before wasting time creating an interface on a non-existent phone.

The fuck are you on about?
Plasma 5 runs just fine on my fucking T61
Old news. They announced it ages ago. Too bad there is no way it'll gain traction in the market and will suffer the typical problems in lacking support of both devices and software.

There it is.

Yeah but I mean, what the hell?
A shitty fucking laptop can handle it. Integrated intel graphics can handle it. A $200 dedicated GPU can't. Just how?

5 secs here on a 2nd gen core2duo and a nearly 10 year old HDD.
You're doing something wrong

don't use AMD's proprietary crap retard
>>53878906
I tried both proprietary and FOSS drivers, which do perform differently but hardly "smooth". Not to mention vsync does jackshit on open source drivers with software like chromium. If I wanted tearing I'd use fucking XFCE by default.
Retard.

install gentoo
>>53878555
Another dead os.
>>53878555
I don't get it - microsoft can't do it, what the fuck makes other companies think they can? not to try and defend microsoft's stand when it comes to mobile OS', but I'm sure they have a lot more money to sink on a DOA OS than these shitty fucking piece of shit no-name companies not to mention a lot more brand-name.

Maybe the guys are doing it because they want to use an OS they feel comfortably using, and not to gain a huge userbase or anything. After all, KDE is a non profit organisation.

Go on installgentoo and check out the radeon tutorial, assuming you're not using the proprietary driver that is.
There are two scenarios where this might take off.
>they build it on top of AOSP/CM
>they build it on top of Ubuntu Touch
No way in hell it'll ever gain traction if they build yet another operating system.
