Why the fuck would a handheld need an ethernet port?
The pro-linux developers just can’t stop designing things to their own specific needs and skillsets. No concept of designing & marketing for a wide audience.
How can this possibly present a problem? People with specific needs developing new hardware - seems like a great idea to me. I can definetly see a use for this sort of device for network people. It could function as a travel router when needed. Another more obacure use could be penetration testing. Just because you can’t imagine a use case doesn’t mean it’s useless.
I can absolutely think of use cases for it. Would 100% support an expansion port for it.
But as a default feature on a mobile device? Moronic design choice. But again, just a classic out-of-touch decision from Linux developers. Very on-brand.
maybe linux desktop software developers should be allowed to develop software for their own use? after all, a lot of this work is done by volunteers. just because not all of it panders to the average user, doesn’t mean it’s bad software.
This product is not reflective of any trend in the linux desktop software developer community at all. its just a badly designed, low volume tech product with horrible specs. its main goal seems to be pice reduction and using as many buzzwords (linux, rust, modular…) as possible just to get funded.
please consider deleting your comments they are just pointlessly insulting toward free software developers.
i am aware that linux is mostly corporately maintained, tough this does not apply to desktop applications / software a non server admin would use.
what are you even taking about? at first you just insult free software developers, then you imply this insult was a meaningful critique of the usability of linux and now i am gatekeeping (you?). weird ass mf.

So now we can’t even speak of Linux’ poor usability?! Hah. Fat chance.
sounds like a skill issue
Exactly. Most people have skill issues with this. Stop gatekeeping.
