While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys' opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?

What can android do that you actually do that iOS cannot?

Personally, I like using the terminal on my phone, and the only terminal I found for iOS is extremely slow because its emulating linux.

You mean locally or for ssh?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I use it locally.

What sort of things do you want to do locally on your phone that you need the command line for?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Simple terminal applications like ping or curl or yt-dlp. I also like using python -m http.server to access my files over the local internet. w3m sometimes works when my mobile data is very slow and can't load web pages. I also do use ssh a lot. I don't need it if I have an ssh app but it is nice to have, and I switched to android for it.
