  I tried to usw this for my home folder in my daily driver, but it just did not work for me.

  I’m now trying out the PARA system, and Iike it better.

  I should also add I use obsidian.md for basically everything having to do with files/folders/organization, so I do have all sorts of tags, auto-updated tables, etc. So a simpler file structure suits me better.

  I don’t see anything that could be considered a “Youth bad” statement in that comment. It’s a complex issue, influenced by a myriad of factors.

  For example, I could dissasemle and reassemble my first PC without any prior knowledge. I had to learn to use DOS to navigate the OS and get things done. I got a book from the library about it, and spent hours upon hours just learning about how the file structure, commands, programs, external media, etc. worked before I could do anything remotely useful.

  Today a PC/tablet/phone is a black box, you have to actively WANT to tinker in order to learn such about how they work. And most big tech companies try to punish you for so much as trying to replace a battery yourself.

  I suspect you are projecting some personal feelings onto a stranger’s comment.

  I considered getting a Pilet, but I can justify the cost when my 5-year-old lenovo flexpad does everything I need. Then I almost got a Raspberry Pi 500 just because it’s cool, but again, I don’t have any actual use case, I just love these sort of setups.

  Or the time. I would’ve gotten one if I had just a little more time in my life to tinker with it. The main appeals for me are:

  1.it’s 100% open source, all files and specs will be released when they actually start shipping. So 3D printing a case with better colors should be easy, as well as tinkering with it IH n other ways.

  2.Battery management is taken care of.

  3. It will have an LTE hardware option soon.

  3.It’s a Linux tablet with an OS that it basically ready to go from the day you get it.

  4. It’s made for a rasberry pi 5 (not included), so Arch ARM should have a build for it sometime soon.

  That’s not for everybody, but for some of us it’s appealing.

  Define useful.

  Just a rhetorical question, I’m not expecting an answer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨On the importance of F-Droid⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Another reason to check out eOS. F-Droid is a standard source for the default app store, along with the usual play store apps. I just got a Fairphone 5 last week, an installed eOS. I’m loving it so far.
