Long time iOS user with perception issues here. I went to iOS because it was very simple and intuitive to use. My daily life was too busy for me to tinker with my phone a lot.
Now I'm using pmos with phosh and I'm mostly loving it. But some of the linux specific decisions and directions it takes dont really work with me.
Thats why I started asking myself if a DE exists which is basically a clone of the proprietary apple phone OS. It should obviously still be FOSS and prioritize FOSS apps and so on. But I think it would help adoption by mainstream if iOS users (especially with need for accessibility features). Its basically the reason I was able to switch from minecraft to mineclone. It's basically the same (although I respect their decision to rename to Voxelibre, iirc and go their own way).
I know this is probably going to get a lot of hate because iOS bad and tinkering good and so on. But accessibility is important for many people, especially in their busy lives.
Feel free to point me in the right direction if something like this exists or lets try and make something.
Thanks for reading and have a good one.
Absolutely yes. Thank you.
Thanks for the positive vibe. People will probably shit on you for not being elitist enough like they often do. Feel free to test it once it works :)
Times when mobile phones were seen to be elitist are past. And if one really understands DEs, you'd not comment in such a hopeless tone.
I‘m not sure I understand. I mean a lot of folks in the linux and foss world dont get the importance of accessibility. Thats why I was happy you gave a positive vibe.
