With the amount of Linux nerds on Lemmy, I’m shocked there’s an a TUI client for it.

Maybe I’ll have to make one someday.

What do you mean? You can always use a distro like Steam OS (or any other Linux distro) on any x86 PC and still use a mouse and keyboard. Or use a Steam Deck and plug in a mouse and keyboard.

I should really look into peertube. With YouTube always breaking compatability with Newpipe and other apps, I’m tired of having to deal with YT’s outages

I remember when it used to be all the REALLY interesting stuff was root only, yet a lot of normal interesting stuff was non-root. Now even with root, modern Android can be a pain and the interesting stuff just pales in comparison with true Linux

Totally agree with basically every point here. You hit the nail on the head. App images are the .exe’s of the Linux world and I don’t understand how someone can say they love app images but hate Window’s portable exe’s.

Anyways, this is all to point out why I avoid app images if at all possible

I can’t speak for the T460, but I have a T480 with dual batteries and battery swapping works just fine. With a bit of tinkering I was even able to get the fingerprint sensor to work as well
