  • I’ve run iodéOS for at least a year by now.

    It used to have some bugs that mildly inconvenienced me,but they have all been fixed now.

    I really like it. It just works.

    Uninstallable default apps just means that the stores (f-droid / aurora), browsers, camera and lots more can be removed in the settings, so you dont need to root access to do so.

    Don’t want the default email client and contacts app? Just uninstall them from the settings. Takes a reboot to take effect.

    If you need them again, just go back there, install them again, reboot and you’re golden.

    Attaching a screenshot from the “Preinstalled apps” page in the settings.

    Feel free to ask if you have any more questions.


















  • I believe you are fixating on something that won’t have much impact regardless of what choice you make. I have been using “windows keyboards” on Linux for years with literally no problems (related to keyboards and Linux). I mostly game, browse the web and work as a software engineer.

    Focus on what feels good physically/ergonomically for you and your workflow and you’ll be golden.

    The only caveat I’d throw in there is if your keyboard of choice has some sort of RGB program for Windows or other custom software. It might not be as simple to control that functionality from Linux, but in many cases there are open source Linux alternatives for that software.
