@krafter what specific problems did you hit with pmOS?

krafter, 1 month ago

@craftyguy my reasons for switching are:

• no camera support*
• unreliable calls on my device (op6)
• poor discord support (ik ik, but the reality is most of the communities I'm in are on discord, and those people won't leave (yet))

*yes ik some devices have camera support, but they're either under powered or expensive or both

if you never used android, give instead #ubports a try, i used the 16.04 as a reliable daily driver happy for several years...
aaaand, if camera is a big issue and you like phosh, give #droidian a go!

@pocketvj @craftyguy the big problem with droidian is that it doesn't support MMS, which would be a big issue for me, living in the U.S.

fair enough... btw. quite funny that mms still exist in the us.

@pocketvj @craftyguy well, tbh it's the fault of two things:

1. Some big cell provider ages ago setting 'unlimited talk and text' as the norm for cell plans
2. Apple's iMessage being good, and having sms/mms in the same app with it, so apple users just text everybody, and when its not iMessage they can't be bothered to switch to a different app to text people-- (1/2)

wow.... i would just ignore mms ... who cares... your friends will get it and switch after a while and the ones who don't, are not your friends...

@pocketvj @krafter I wish I could ignore MMS... but it's still super common in the US and I don't have the heart to ignore family who use it because it is frictionless for them and "just works"
