Reached mid-thirties, I'm still having no idea what the *** is going on, the longer I live, the less everything around me makes sense (and I don't think it's me that changes that much...).

Watching what's going on in the US for instance, just results me in shaking my head in disbelief, without having any idea what's going on...

I'm very likely the minority, but the reason I still have a phone with jack is that my custom mold in-ear, well... is wired (I'm a musician).

I don't want to use a different headphone for hearing music, as this is a really good monitor (actually I think it has cost me 10x as much as the used phone I'm driving it with (LG V30)). An external DAC is annoying, as this for one drains the battery pretty heavily and - fewer adapters less worries...

There's other reasons why you don't want to use bluetooth, namely latency, although probably less important, for applications where this is really relevant, you would use a dedicated audio interface anyways... Or well, just the fact that I know of a few people already that they lost their bud(s), quite a bit more difficult if everything is wired together.

Yeah I'm still stuck with my LG V30 and refuse to upgrade because the DAC + Jack is soo good.

It's a matter of scale...

Have you thought about just wanting to preserve privacy?

Then we need to use it, there's a high demand for hydrogen (not for electricity) for instance, so excess energy should just either be stored or converted to H.

You can see all kinds of typical AI artifacts

then it doesn't matter that they use lots of it because it's renewable anyway

It does, it always does. There's for one grey energy, and more importantly this energy can't be used somewhere else where otherwise fossil fuels were used. We should always be efficient with our energy use...

Don't get me wrong, I'm the first promoting an Android free mobile Linux, free of big company influences.

Though, what I meant is that there's very few mobile optimised apps on Linux, and I doubt that changes soon. The Android SDK is very matured (like Compose for UI). It's fairly easy to create a good native app experience in Android. Less so for non-Android Linux. (I've developed apps for either) Think about that alone, which further complicates adoption, which TBH is just necessary to get to an ecosystem that us usable for daily usage.

I hope that changes sooner than later, but the current alternatives are just not there yet.

You wouldn't need it on Linux mobile because...it's not Android

But then you need apps that work on Linux (optimised for mobile/touch). You can also easily create Apps for Android without play integrity API necessity.

Realistically an Android fork makes more sense.

Though in my ideal dream world a Rust based mobile wayland compositor (etc.) will be the future of open mobile OS. I hope there's enough (financial) interest to at some point reach that future.

Or free shipping at xx Euros, which results in me paying/buying a lot more unnecessary stuff...

I did that as a (stupid) kid. I did obviously survive. But it was one of the few sockets that wasn't really protected with fuses, so the result was a power-outage for the whole street, and a few guys with fancy protective clothing (against high-voltage) came to fix this...
