This is a nice recent write-up about JMP. Pros, cons, use cases, etc.

Going Mobile with JMP.chat | Mitch’s Blog

I ditched my carriers about a year or so ago. Ported two numbers over to JMP.chat and all has been good. Contacts integration and using the standard Phone to make calls works well. Agreed, too, the support is great. Nice bunch of folks.

There’s a few guides or articles that might be helpful.

How to Replace Your Carrier on Android Using These Fully Open-Source Tools

Set up your Internet Phone Number (JMP.chat) with Cheogram

Dialer integration is possible using the Cheogram client but the monocles chat client is now based on Cheogram & Conversations so one could use that also. It might have a few extra options/features.

I have Fedora KDE Plasma Mobile Spin on a ThinkPad X1 Yoga Gen 3. I kinda like it. Initially rotation wasn’t working but once fixed it was cool.

Had also tried KDE Neon but don’t recall why I went back to Fedora.

Native Alpha also uses your webview for rendering. If your BlackBerry still gets updates then maybe you’re fine. Otherwise a bit insecure but maybe that’s not a problem(?).

Oh, I found out that WebApps was moved to the F-Droid Archives repo. They’ve been cleaning up the main repo by moving out older and unmaintained apps.

Ah, sorry. Forgot to include a link. Just noticed today that it is no longer on F-Droid.

WebApps is no longer maintained but so is the dev’s older GApps Browser yet that’s still there. Strange.

Despite being dated it suits me fine. Used with updated webviews (Mulch) so I feel comfortable with its use.

GitHub - tobykurien/WebApps: DEPRECATED ⛔️ Android app to provide sandboxed (private) browsing of webapps

Not sure as I use Toby Kurien’s WebApps for stuff like that. Only using Native Alpha Plus for old email accounts (Netscape/AOL, Yahoo, etc.).

Checked their GitHub and see that crashes have been reported when long-pressing.

Have you tried the right-click menu thing? See this post… https://github.com/cylonid/NativeAlphaForAndroid/issues/119#issuecomment-2284133665

Their Matrix chat is very active regarding development and other things. Builds are available on a regular basis. Not sure why you insist on calling it dead if you don’t know or care to know anything. So it doesn’t support your watch, it’s dead? Yet it supports mine, so it’s alive and kicking. ¯_(⊙ʖ⊙)/¯

SoftMaker Office is what I’ve used on Linux for lots of years. Has served me well.

Any idea how old that article is? Couldn’t find a date but the mention of Windows 7 tells me it’s not recent.

I still have my netscape.net address (AOL) and all the others (Yahoo, MS Live, Outlook). Also a second GMail address that was created/converted when TheBat service shutdown.

I use Thexyz and Purely Mail for normal use though.

Okay. 🙄

Just for tinkering so far. I have a habit of tossing the devices aside for long periods of time when an OS breaks badly. 😁

Technically SailfishOS handles most of the requirements to make the device a daily-driver-in-training. All but one of my Android devices are VoIP now. Getting away from carrier-based stuff (and saving money). At the moment there isn’t really anything usable on the mobile linux side (SIP, calls via XMPP - I have JMP.chat numbers) that I am aware of. On SFOS that is. Though I can use movim via browser.

Guess it is time I took the devices seriously and try to use them more regularly.

Have the PinePhone and PP Pro. Partial to SailfishOS on both. It has the most smartphone feel if you will. Like with most the camera is pretty much a no go but I rarely use them anyway.

Currently… Slackware on main laptop. Slint (Slackware-based) on mini-pc. MX Linux (fvwm respin), Void, and OpenBSD on old laptop. NsCDE is desktop on all except MX.

I gave the app a test run. Ultra bright white with no dark mode. #WhiteUIMustDie

On the home screen all images are cropped and can’t be fully viewed. Tapping does nothing. Selecting View Post doesn’t show the full image either.

Quite different compared to PixelDroid 1.0beta21.
