Paul Shapley's Open Source Geospatial Blog

I predict that we will see the merger of laptops into smaller mobile devices capable of being connected to a large screen for mapping and geospatial work where the applications are increasingly cloud based. I believe that PostmarketOS is already a good contender as a decent (if currently still experimental) operating system, private and secure. Let's focus for a moment on the advantages over other linux distributions.  PostmarketOS’s (Currently at version 26.06) main advantage is that it is designed specifically to make phones, tablets and other embedded/mobile devices behave like maintainable Linux computers , rather than adapting a conventional desktop distribution after the fact. Principal advantages 1. Strong mobile-device focus postmarketOS provides infrastructure specifically for: touch-oriented interfaces such as Phosh and Plasma Mobile; mobile modems, calls and SMS where supported; suspend, battery management, screen rotation and sensors; device-specific kernels, fi...

PostmarketOS is a privacy-focused Linux-based operating system for mobile devices, designed to extend the useful life of phones while giving users far more control than typical Android or iOS systems.  Rather than tying the device to vendor accounts, bundled tracking services, or short manufacturer support cycles, PostmarketOS aims to provide a transparent, maintainable platform built around open-source software.  Its strongest appeal is 'phone-and-desktop convergence', a compatible phone can function as a normal mobile device, but can also connect to a monitor, keyboard, and mouse to provide a lightweight linux desktop experience.  This makes PostmarketOS attractive for users who want one pocket-sized device that can handle calls, mesaging, mobile browsing, terminal access, file management, and, where hardware support allows, full desktop-style working. https://postmarketos.org
