Create Apps for *phones* with #Vala !??? Yes, of course, for #LinuxPhones!
Check out the #postmarketos wiki for supported devices, maybe yours works: wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Mai
You ask, which Vala apps already support phones? The answer is: Almost all that use #libadwaita!
1. Go with the #GNOME App template in #GNOMEBuilder
2. install the "qemu-user-static" package on your host
3. select ARM as target architecture and click the export bundle button in Builder
4. transfer it to the phone and run it!

Session is:

- no phone numbers 🥸
- onion-routed 🧅
- decentralised 🌐
- funded by a registered non-profit💸
- open source 🪟
- independently audited 🤝
- multi-device💻🤝📱

Whenever you send a message, you expect it to arrive at its intended destination without being re-routed to, read by, or responded to by anyone but the person (or people) you sent the message to.

Session doesn't rely on trust on first use.

Most private messaging apps do.

The Redot Engine project has created a Rumble channel. There are no videos on it thus far but it's nice to see them offering a Youtube alternative. They have also created a Ko-Fi page for those that wish to give them donations. Redot is a fork of the Godot game engine. It's in response to the Godot project mass banning people for political BS. I'd encourage anybody effected by the Godot nonsense that can't just up and switch to a different engine to use Redot.




Redot's source code can be found at Github:

If you want some help deciding how to stop using Microsoft Windows, there are many people on the #fediverse and #nostr who would be happy to give you advice.

I recommend Linux Mint.

Also, I refurbished and sell computers with the option of having Linux pre-installed. Can ship anywhere in the United States.

Feel free to DM me if you have any questions.
