@aard Thanks, appreciate it! I am a xfce user with my own script to move windows around that kinda acts like a window manager, tailored specifically to what I need. I made several attempts over the years to switch to a floating wm but never found the sweet spot with multiple monitors involved, so I am always interested how other peoples setups look.

@aard What window manager do you use? Any chance to see your setup?

@poweruser Sadly it doesn’t have an AMOLED screen (cheap samsung tablet) but as a last resort it might be worth a shot. Thanks
@kionite231 Was the first thing I tried. Termux even has a “wake lock” function but that also doesn’t seem to prevent it.
@SomeBoyo Yeah that’s the normal devices guarantee you also get with normal android on pixel devices. So in terms of longevity GrapheneOS doesn’t offer any advantages. There are other advantages of course.
@SaltyIceteaMaker I installed miniflux, a rss reader, on it. Sadly android constantly kills the internet connecting when the screen turns off, so I can’t use it as a server to access it from my other devices. I have tried everything I could find to prevent that from happening.
@SomeBoyo What “long term support”? Official GrapheneOS releases for a device end when the official Android support ends because they don’t support hardware where the firmware is not updated anymore. Or did that change recently?

@Predator There is also Stealth https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.cosmos.unreddit/

It’s not wired at all. I am active on both and the culture on both sites is completely different, so I totally understand when people decide that one culture fits them better.
The RIF dev is making an app for tildes.net
Depends on the use case. I played around with it a lot and came to the conclusion that I don’t like flatpaks and the base system is not flexible enough for me.
I use it as a self-updating desktop for my parents tho,. For that it’s absolutely perfect.
