sure thats portable, but you would need a lot of devices for that
this would be… somewhat possible, you can’t really boot GSI images, however the folk at BlissOS do have an android generic project that makes porting custom roms to x86 a lot easier. By porting android images to generic x86, we can serve them as temporary VMs, just like https://distrosea.com/ (I’ve actually been thinking about doing something like this for bliss specifically but funding says no lol).
This is contingent on roms being ported to x86 though, off the top of my head there are images floating around for
and specific verisons of
I believe there are also images of LMODroid and Calyx floating around… somewhere
Chromium browsers have a lot of issues, and so does firefox, but ram usage is not one of chromes weaknesses, Chromium regularly preforms better for me then firefox does under low ram scenarios, Both in terms of chrome being responsive, and in terms of chrome not crippling everything else around it.
I will never not be upset at people who don’t realize how ram works
Exactly that. While most apps do offer X86 versions, there are some that don’t. Every now and then you will come across an app or two that doesn’t.
I wont say there is no jank, there is certainly a degree of it, particularly around arm apps due to needing libhoudini or libndk for arm translation (some games, not all with pick these up as “emulators” and block you or simply not work on a couple games) but generally most arm apps work fine. if you are living with a fully x86 ecosystem like myself, I have zero complaints, everything works fine and dandy. that I myself have tested. but ofc, bugs do exist and we try to help out as much as we can on the bliss telegram or matrix as it is an actively developed project.
It only really works well with 2 in 1 machines that have decentish linux support. there are specific builds for some surface devices. however if your device like mine has decent linux support, it’s pretty much a plug and play solution. Bliss uses a the android common kernel which has very little modifications to upstream kernel so typically support for hardware is simply dependant on how new the kernel is.
Bliss also relies on mesa for graphics, so intel and AMD have great support, and Nvidia is quite lack luster, but this may change with the new foss nvidia driver stuff.
Honestly might be a bit of a “shill” moment, Grabbing windows 2 in 1 and flashing bliss to it. Currently have a chuwi hi10x which can boot into Bliss and it’s nice.
at least if the memes were good. It’s just bad man this bad man that or dementia man dementia man that.
