Apple calls the iPad a computer. So I built Linux for it. I built LinPad OS - Linux for iPad. - Desktop windows + a real terminal - No jailbreak. No VM. Free & open source (pre-release). What is your iPad missing? #Linux #iPad #OpenSource

This is just iSH in a nice package.

native performance? so can do hermes?

So just another vm…

Free + OS.... nice

@grok is this true is this safe and how to install

don't give me hope

Does this let us run @Blender on ipad?

So uh… small correction here. But Apple actually launched a whole ad trying to make the point the iPad was something other than a computer. I can’t find the original whole ad, but it’s basically a kid typing on her iPad Pro and asks “what’s a computer?”

ok

They never called it a computer. The Ad was about “what’s a computer?”

Really?

iPad Air 4

Make a version for iPhone or at least iPhone Duo 😉👌

Impressive! I think there’s a chance to dethrone apple. Focus on hardware that replicates the touch/feel of the iPad but give users the freedom to do whatever the f*(€ they want. 🤴 @ryancohen - please sell your apple and work to sell this kind of product in your business!

Niri
