The Linux foundation seems ready to finally axe a Microsoft-made remote network protocol for USB that is still a part of modern Windows operating systems.

    android, and I mean all of them, lags like hell on 2Gb RAM

    False. The key is the software you use. I use Lineage OS without Gapps, most apps from F-droid and my mid-range Samsung runs pretty smoothly with 2GB of RAM.

      This. LineageOS on any device that supports it immediately improves said device x10.

      I have an old as hell Galaxy tablet that had slowed down to a crawl after a few years. With LineageOS it’s usable again.

          @specterspectre @michael_palmer also Samsung Galaxy A70, however, it is critical that I don’t leave it unusable since it’s essential for my work
