There is one big thing I'd really like to have on my phone, which is the ability to get slack notifications and send messages. I know, I can do this on desktop, but I'm in some slack channels (including work) I'd like to be able to use on the go.
I saw this method: https://www.artificialworlds.net/blog/20...on-ubuntu/ in a thread here, and the author posted an improved method here: https://www.artificialworlds.net/blog/20...ing-slirc/.
Before I go that route, just want to check and see if you all have found any other ways to do this. I am open to changing the os, if there is a distro that makes this easier.
Hi Adam,
sorry for this late reply. I found your post searching for slack here, so here we go:
I just tried to use slack in Firefox on the pine phone.
In theory, it should be possible to do that without problems (slack is a pure web / electron application, I am able to see all of slack in firefox on my mac).
In practice, when I enter https://slack.com/signin I always get redirected to the slack android download page.
I suspect this is due to some firefox useragent being tweaked (I am on postmarketOS). So far, I can not use Slack in Firefox
