  • i just run normal stuff like immich and a dns server and use it as a headless server, though I do have a backup terminal on the touchscreen in case I need it (fbkeyboard).

    I don’t think it has any real benefits except the touchscreen, very low power consumption and the built-in battery, I just use it because it’s free and interesting.

    I guess compared to other devices like the rpi it has pretty good performance and resources, though one big drawback is that I have to use wifi for networking.

    It’s just the use I found for my old phone that was sitting in the cupboard doing nothing.







  • yeah, looking at the federation systems it supports is insane and I really want to try it out honestly

    from Wikipedia:

    Friendica users can connect with others via their own Friendica server, but may also fully integrate contacts from other platforms including Diaspora, Pump.io, GNU social, email, Discourse[9] and more recently ActivityPub (including Mastodon, Pleroma and Pixelfed) and Bluesky[10][11] into their ‘newsfeed’. In addition to these two way connections, users can also use Friendica as a publishing platform to post content to WordPress, Tumblr, Insanejournal[12] and Libertree. Posting to Google+ was also supported until that service was shut down. In addition, RSS feeds can be ingested.[13] Because users are distributed across many servers, their “addresses” consist of a username, the “@” symbol, and the domain name of the Friendica instance in the same manner email addresses are formed. Twitter support was available but was deprecated due to API changes under Elon Musk’s leadership rendering it unusable.
