Having a full Linux mobile or tablet device has always interested me, to have an alternative to Android and use Arch Linux everywhere. Realistically I won't be able to give up Android on my phone, but what about tablet's? Phosh was developed to be a graphical user interface for mobile …
It would be a nice feature, if Phosh behaved a bit different in landscape mode; it wastes too much vertical space, especially using Firefox to browse the web is a disaster. Maybe the top and bottom panel should share screen space at the top instead (each half of the screen); or they should be on the sides instead…
Yeah, it needs a way to hide the bottom bar at least. The bottom bar is even more useless than the Android navigation bar, which is also a colossal waste of screen real estate. I despised the move away from physical buttons on Android, but I think they’ve since made up for it since they implemented gesture navigation which does away with the screen-wasting bar. Phosh’s bar is just a single action except for the keyboard button, and the keyboard button is the absolute worst. Tiny button squeezed in the very corner on a mobile UI that runs on phones that frequently have rounded edges that cut off things in the very corner. That whole design needs reworked IMO. Gesture option would be amazing.
