Good calculator on the Linux Phone? And general lack of mobile responsive apps
#1
Greetings all,

I have been trying out the Linux phone I got recently (Librem 5) and noticed that generally apps are not so ready for the small screen...

I wonder if others using other Linux os's on Pinephone have noticed a similar problem or have any good workarounds?

As an example, there are several good Android calculators (Arity, open source on FDroid is my go to)
but on mobile Linux the most awesome calculators are bloaty or cut off on the small screen and don't work so well...
In fact I went through the options and listed out some of the problems - and linked bug reports, here:
