Questions for linux phone enthusiasts:
1. What's to stop Instagram etc creating apps for mobile linux? (In principle I mean, obviously there's no market yet)
2. Is it possible to set up phones with users, so (in principle) you could have a child as a user who can't install anything without the root password?
Thanks ahead of time (this is for my forthcoming blog post on the benefits of linux mobile for young people)
@davidoclubb
Looking forward to the blog post!
Tbh, though, I don't think I want Instagram to begin with, part of the reason I got a pinephone is to escape that part of the Internet. Pixelfed and the fediverse is much nicer to hang out on anyways.
@RannyBergamotte I don't want Instagram or any other surveillance capitalist app either; my 'thesis' is how linux phones could reduce the pressure on kids to access and/or use these sorts of apps
