You all know what would be the most awesome thing for 90% of people?
Fully developed Linux Phones + Lapdocks.
Just one device you carry all the time anyway
Super powerful phones make more sense
All data in one place without all sync stuff
Battery for daaays when docked
2 displays
Super portable setup
Samsung screwed it up with Dex and other companies didn’t want to create reasons not to buy more. Luckily devs working on projects like aftermarketOS do not give a fart about such things, and what’s currently possible and being worked on is really promising.
Imagine all you need for general computing and light gaming / editing on the go on any display or TV you come across would be a USB-C dock and perhaps a small keyboard & mouse combo. I want that future.
Depending on their success there might be at least one app that facilitates payments. If not anything else then at least GNU Taler once it gets adopted (obviously talking about not earlier than 2027 right now for any of this).
That would be awesome. With legit Debian VMs and desktop mode coming to Android, I would love to see some serious development progress in that area. But we all know the big tech firms are gonna fuck it all up and neuter it.
Termux on Android solves a lot of that. But the touchscreen keyboard is definitely a tricky issue.

What do you mean by this? Dex is pretty awesome.
The only thing that I would miss is contactless payments via my phone.

There have been several attempts at that and none succeeded.
Ubuntu Touch is somewhat there but also not.
