A small project to help out anyone trying to keep their old devices functional.
I wrote a script to scrape pages of some popular alternative OS projects (such as postmarketOS and LineageOS), and put them into a single list. I’ll try to automate and keep this up-to-date. Any additional OS suggestions and comments are welcome!
Isbot just user preference to choose between postmarkey cachy and lineage? Or is one preferable
All my old devices became unusable due to the flash memory chip degrading. Unless they can run off SD card?
Alas, no. You could hypothetically replace the board though, which would allow you to continue using the rest of the hardware. But you have to source the part, and switch it out, which isn’t always possible
I recommend you look on xda too
Dang I thought this would resurrect my old Galaxy Tab S2 but, according to PostMarketOS, wifi is broken :-(
Couldn’t you use a USB hub with a USB wifi adapter attached? I already have both things, and if the device will be in one place, it works. Of course, if you don’t have any of the components, it gets tricky.
Thank you @yaky@slrpnk.net
Very useful. Thanks for sharing
